标题: OG 119的独立主格结构 [打印本页] 作者: assfgrtrtr 时间: 2004-11-3 12:56 标题: OG 119的独立主格结构
119. Executives and federal officials say that the use of crack and cocaine is growing rapidly among workers, significantly compounding the effects of drug and alcohol abuse, which already are a cost to business of more than $100 billion a year.
(A) significantly compounding the effects of drug and alcohol abuse, which already are a cost to business of
(B) significantly compounding the effects of drug and alcohol abuse, which already cost business
(C) significantly compounding the effects of drug and alcohol abuse, already with business costs of
(D) significant in compounding the effects of drug and alcohol abuse, and already costing business
(E) significant in compounding the effects of drug and alcohol abuse, and already costs business
我认为选项C更恰当呀,with引导的独立主格结构;而正确答案的which,由于紧跟abuse,会让人觉得不是修饰effects而是修饰abuse吧;OG中对C的解释也看得不甚了了In C, already with business costs of... is awkward and unclear, failing to specify that those prior effects generate the cost.感觉太牵强了一个awkward and unclear就打发了
比如og 113题的正确答案是:visitors to the park have often looked up into the leafy canopy and saw monkeys sleeping on the branches,with arms and legs hanging like stocks on a clotheline.
而不是定语从句引导的visitors to the park have often looked up into the leafy canopy and saw monkeys sleeping on the branches,whose arms and legs were hanging like socks on a clothesline.作者: teyvhf 时间: 2004-11-3 13:04
独立主格是伴随整个句子的。而本句中：cost 是前面的effect发出的，有更直接的联系。另，shinogigi大牛曾说过：sth1. of sth2 and sth3., which does。。。这里的which可以指向前一个sth1.
