请问it是否可以指代短语?
我一直以为it不可以指代短语,只能指代名词;而which是可以指代短语的。
OG13 SC85 里面it可以指代owing and living in a freestanding house
有点糊涂了,是it可以指代名词性短语?而owing and living in a freestanding house是可以当成一个名词来看的?
请高人指点。作者: xuyuanwai 时间: 2013-6-3 19:09
这里owing and living in a freestanding house动名词短语做主语,是一个一体的成分,it指代这个名词性质的成分,应该没有什么问题~

不好意思,偷了个小懒,下次注意。
关于it的指代问题,因为以前自己做的笔记上面写it不可以指代短语,比如 the growth of the global economy, 75% of the population, a greater proportion 都不可以用it指代。所以这次看到owing and living 这样的doing形式的短语出现就困惑了。看来以前的理解不是很准确。
现在看起来it可以指代做名词性成分的短语,能不能用it指代主要看短语在句中所做的成分。
