119. New theories propose that catastrophic impacts of
asteroids and comets may have caused reversals in
the Earth’s magnetic field, the onset of ice ages,
splitting apart continents 80 million years ago, and
great volcanic eruptions.
(A) splitting apart continents
(B) the splitting apart of continents
(C) split apart continents
(D) continents split apart
(E) continents that were split apart
Parallelism
Th is sentence lists four eff ects of catastrophic
impacts; each eff ect, except the one included in
the underlined portion, is given in noun form:
reversals, the onset, eruptions. Splitting is a verb and
thus not parallel to the other nouns in the series;
in the second option splitting is a noun. Splitting
may be transformed into a noun by adding the
article the.
A Splitting, a verb, is not parallel to reversals,
the onset, and eruptions, and its role as a
member in the series is unclear.
B Correct. Th e splitting is a gerund, or noun
form, and is properly used in this sentence; it
is parallel to the other nouns.
C Verb split is not parallel to reversals, the
onset, and eruptions.
D If the impacts truly caused continents the
verb created would be used, but it makes no
sense to say impacts caused continents and
this phrase is not parallel to the other noun
phrases.
E Th is option is similar to the previous option:
continents cannot be said to be caused.
请问D中绿色部分做何解呢？3Q~~~~

D说的是文中主干是the impacts caused 啥，啥，啥和啥。如果continent放在前面，就必须要有动词created，否自没意义。我感觉这个还是看平行把，和前后对比做的

impacts 导致的是地理现象的变化，而不是地理现象本身。
continents是地理现象，spliting才是变化。

这个地方考的是动宾的逻辑搭配。

这种问题有考过同类的：

Possible long-term consequences of the “greenhouse effect,” the gradual warming of the Earth’s climate, may include melting the polar ice caps and a rising sea level.

A. may include melting the polar ice caps and a rising sea level

B. may include the melting of polar ice caps and the rising sea level

C. may include polar ice caps that are melting and sea levels that are rising

D. include melting the polar ice caps and sea levels that are rising

E. include melting of the polar ice caps and a rise in sea level

解释的意思是，如果真的要说impact导致了大陆，就应该用create这个词。因为你不能说 cause continents, 搭配不当，含义也不对。你不觉得“导致了大陆”很怪吗。从语义上来说，导致的对象应该是一个结果，而不是“大陆”这个概念。

但我觉得cause的不是continents，而是 continents的split apart 啊。
就像句子“This movie made me cry.”不是movie made 我这个人，二是导致了我的哭啊。
能不能再麻烦谁给我解释下啊。

首先要明白D选项的意思，D选项其实就是一个名字continent (that was split apart), 明白了？然后再去看OG的解释，在看看LS几位NN的解释。。。明白了？

作者: Sunfisher006 时间: 2012-3-31 06:42

其实OG说了这么一大堆...不就是要找个名词形式来表达一个动作嘛...
或者说找一个事件的名词嘛（因为只有事件能被caused）

看旁边并列的东西reversals，onset， eruptions，这些都是caused的宾语。看到题目知道要找split的名词就对了，没有就用动名词the spliting

还是不太明白，如何补出省略的部分？continent(that was split apart)
请NN指教！

cause做动词时一个用法是cause sb to do,而D中的直接是caused continents split apart说明这里的split不是一个动词，再查split这个词过去式和过去分词是一个形式，所以这里的split apart实际上市动词split的过去分词形式，做宾语补足语。
所以这样看下来，D的意思就成了impacts caused continents
而在逻辑上大路应该是被产生的(create)而不应该是引起的(cause),所以D才会这么解释.
