OG85一直深感巨惑不安,由于无法读懂句子,OG的解答也就无法理解,请各位XDJM详细解释一下,并给出句子的中文翻译,十分感谢。

85. Out of America's fascination with all things antique have grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that are bringing back the chaise lounge, the overstuffed sofa, and the claw-footed bathtub.

(A) things antique have grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that are bringing

(B) things antique has grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that is bringing

(C) things that are antiques has grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that bring

(D) antique things have grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that are bringing

(E) antique things has grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that bring

Choice B is best. In A and D, have grown does not agree with the singular noun market. In addition, all of the choices except B use plural verbs after that, thus illogically stating either that bygone styles of furniture and fixtures, or fixtures alone, are reviving the particular pieces mentioned; it is instead the market for those styles that is bringing back such pieces, as B states. Furthermore, choices C and E, by using the verb form bring, fail to convey the ongoing nature of the revival properly described by the progressive verb is bringing.

E, by using the verb form bring, fail to convey the ongoing nature of the revival properly described by the progressive verb is bringing.

Why "convey the ongoing"? where can I get that?

你的意思是:把E改一下:(E) things antique has grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that bring中的bring比is bring谁更优~~~

我觉得:因为这里有一个动词grow“成长为”,后面用进行时is bring描述个动作比较确切,而用一般时bring只是描述这样一个状态,没有进行时生动。

个人感觉区分is bring 和 bring的差异很难判断答案。但是1)从things,anything, nothing等不定代词的形容词修饰置后这个语法点倒是很好排除E.2)如果一定要考究is bring 和 bring在本题中的区别,我觉得应该是从定语从句的跨越修饰这个点。因为that前有两个复数名词,用that bring会引起歧义。
