以下是引用yayajiaojiao在2008-8-7 6:53:00的发言: not a NN. 如果although/even though/while的主語跟主句的主語一樣&although/even though/while的main verb的時態跟主句的一樣, 從句的主語一樣, 從句的主語可以省, 可是要把從句的main verb改成現在分詞. OG10的例句: 95. Along with the drop in producer prices announced yesterday, the strong retail sales figures released today seem to indicate that the economy, although growing slowly, is not nearing a recession. 158. Although accounting for only 5 percent of the world's population, United States citizens consume 28 percent of its nonrenewable resources, drive more than one-third of its automobiles, and use 21 times more water per capita than Europeans do. 233. Recently implemented "shift-work equations" based on studies of the human sleep cycle have reduced sickness, sleeping on the job, and fatigue among shift workers while raising production efficiency in various industries. ======================================================= Although United States citizens account for only 5 percent of the world's population, United States citizens consume 28 percent of its nonrenewable resources, drive more than one-third of its automobiles, and use 21 times more water per capita than Europeans do. => Although accounting for only 5 percent of the world's population, United States citizens consume 28 percent of its nonrenewable resources, drive more than one-third of its automobiles, and use 21 times more water per capita than Europeans do.
在OG上能查到的实例中,都是although + doing的形式,这个看来已经没有问题了。但是,如果出现although+done这种结构,而逻辑主语也跟主句的主语一致,算不算对呢? 再用OG11-09举例: Sunspots, vortices of gas associated with strong electromagnetic activity, are visible as dark spots on the surface of the Sun but have never been sighted on the Sun’s poles or equator. 如果有这样一个选项: X) are visible as dark spots on the surface of the Sun although never sighted at 这里的逻辑主语和主句主语一致:sunspots are visible... although (sunspots are) never sighted at... 该不该选呢? |
