Some changes Clark attributes to the particular way management and labor unions negotiated the introduction of the technology, whereas others are seen as arising from the capabilities and nature of the technology itself.

感觉基本格式是 Some changes..., whereas others...后半句没什么问题

前半部分一直到way可以看懂，some changes 是attribute... to 的宾语

如果way后面全都是way的修饰部分，前半句的谓语就找不见了

如果前半句的谓语是negotiated,那way 后面的management and labor unions是什么

yangyimo

私以为前半句的谓语是attributes，negotiate应该不是谓语，整个management and labor....technology都是解释way的。可以这样看这个句子，Some changes have been attributed by Clark to the particular way that management and labor unions negotiated to the introduction of technology. 不知道有没有帮到你

如果谓语是arrtibutes, 因为是单数所以主语就是Clark.,那Some changes是什么？

也对哈，我能建议你，如果这是阅读部分的话，不要太纠结语法吗

LZ看得很细，佩服。。i think it's a compraison, but like "while", "whereas"do not require a rigious parallisim. in my opinion, it's objective inversion to emphasize comparison in this case, that is, the author intends to compare the reason of some changes with that of others. Clark attributes (Some changes) to the particular way management and labor unions negotiated the introduction of the technology, whereas (others) are seen as arising from the capabilities and nature of the technology itself.
