OG-220 与 855-A-10 同位语结构的比较

220. For almost a hundred years after having its begin­ning in 1788, England exiled some 160,000 criminals to Australia.

(A) For almost a hundred years after having its beginning in 1788,

(B) Beginning in 1788 for a period of a hundred years,

(C) Beginning a period of almost a hundred years, in 1788

(D) During a hundred years, a period beginning in 1788,

(E) Over a period of a hundred years beginning in 1788,

Aside from being wordy and awkward, choice A is illogical: because its refers grammatically to England, A states non­sensically that England had its beginning in 1788. Choice B is similarly illogical, because the initial verb phrase Begin­ning in 1788 ... modifies England, the subject of the main clause. Choice C is imprecise, saying that England in 1788 was Beginning a period... but not conveying the sense that anything happened within that period. Choice D is awkward and unidiomatic, and nonsensically suggests that a hundred years is defined as a period beginning in 1788. Precise and idiomatically phrased, choice E is best.

10. Most primates are immune to feline rhinovirus, but a specific group, this being the golden macaques, are highly susceptible to the organism.

(A) a specific group, this being the golden macaques, are highly susceptible to

(B) a specific group, the golden macaques, is highly susceptible to

(C) one group, specifically golden macaques, is highly susceptible of

(D) a specific group, the golden macaques, which are highly susceptible to(B)

(E) a specific group, the golden macaques, which are highly susceptible of

我做OG220的时候, 对D的错误总结为,同位语要有解释力,范围应该比被同位词范围大, 做错了A-10以后,发现这个总结是有问题的. 但我不明白的是OG220说," A,B"这种结构是A is defined as B, 那为什么A-10里面就不是把a specific group定义为the golden macaques了?感觉如果是定义应该是把the golden macaques定义为a specific group才对啊? 当时就是因为这个考虑所有没有敢选BDE

请大家给我指点指点

我觉得“A,B”同位语,A最好有所限定,specific就起了这样的作用;

没有限定的100年本可以放到历史的任何阶段,如从1900-2000这百年;但是如像第一题,a hundred years定义为1788-1888了,我们就无法用a hundred years来表达1900-2000了。

你说的A is defined as B(a hundred years is defined as a period beginning in 1788)正是第一题D选项错误的原因。而第二题的B选项就没有犯这样的问题。

还是不明白哦,那为什么第二题的B就没有犯这样的错误的呢?因为有special限制? 但不一定只有一个group是special的啊。如果只是因为前面的名词有限定,那year前面还有hundred限定呢,但我们仍然不能把hundred years 定义为1788-1888,因为前者的所包含的内容比后者多很多。
与此相同,我觉得a special group也比the golden macaques包含的内容多很多(a golden macaques 是一个special group,a argent macaques也可能是一个special group),但题目却是把a special group定义为了the golden macaques,我感觉是和第一题的D犯了类似的错误.

现在不知道应该如何使用OG220的解释里面“nonsensically suggests that a hundred years is defined as a period beginning in 1788” 的规则了.

大家救我啊....

我做的时候一是在D和E之间徘徊,最后选的是E,理由是D选项a period beginning in 1788可能被理解为修饰England,虽然这种修饰是不合逻辑的,但至少这种表述是不够清晰的。从同位语的角度实在还是想不明白。请NN再加指正!
