[求助] Prep-75

75.
A recent poll indicates that many people in the
United States hold a combination of conservative and liberal political views; i.e., they denounce big government, saying government is doing too much and has become too powerful, while at the same time supporting many specific government programs for health car, education, and environment.



A. they denounce big government, saying government is doing too much and has become too powerful, while at the same time supporting



B. they denounce big government—they say that government is doing too much and has become too powerful—but supporting at the same time



C. they denounce big government, they say that government is doing too much and it has become too powerful, while they support at the same time



D. while they denounce big government, saying that government is doing too much and has become too powerful, at the same time supporting



E. while they are denouncing big government—they say that government is doing too much and it has become too powerful—supporting at the same time


求助: 个人觉得A选项中denounce与support应该是平行结构,但为何后者用ing形式呢?即便按照讨论贴中二楼的解释主语一致时可以省略的话,那也应该是while at the same time support 吧?请NN赐教,谢谢!

denounce 与support 是平行的关系, saying 后面的是插入语. 但是while 有一种用法: while + 动词+ing , 使现在分词短语与主句的动作形成了强烈的对比关系. 意思为: 同时....却   , 强调的是这两个动作同时发生.

while doing sth的结构的是了解的,再请教下是不是while和whereas一样,对平行结构的要求不那么严格亚?谢谢

我认为是这样的!

这道题目不是考平行,而是省略,它涉及一个省略原则:
在时间、条件、让步、方式状语从句中,若从句主语与主句主语相同,从句谓语为be,则从句的主语、谓语都省略。
While引导的是一个时间状语从句,省略they are。

为什么省略了They are,而不是省略they 呢?
