考题讲解

题目分析:
本题虽然不长,但是涉及到了许多语法的概念,需要着重记忆。

选项分析:

A选项:但是,英语语法规定,-’s型的所有格中,例如A’s B,A是不能有修饰语(包括同位语和定语)。如果想给A添加修饰语也不难,将其变为of型所有格即可,例如:
B of A, which does C.
划线部分即为A的修饰语(非限定性定语从句)。因此,本选项中,a pioneer journalist不能做Nellie Bly的同位语,只能做Nellie Bly’s exploits的同位语。这在逻辑上不正确。a pioneer journalist应该是Nellie Bly的同位语,因为其在描述Nellie Bly的职业。

B选项:Correct.本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。

C选项:Including引导的现在分词短语放在句末有两种可能的成分,一种是做定语,一种做伴随状语。区分它究竟做什么成分,只需通过include的逻辑主语来决定即可:若它的逻辑主语是主语Nellie Bly,则其为伴随状语;若它的逻辑主语是表语pioneer journalist,则其为定语。但是,无论是谁,均不能主动的发出include in her exploits这个动作。因此,本选项是错误的。

D选项:
pioneer journalist是Nellie Bly的前置定语,而Nellie Bly’s exploits是-’s型的所有格,该选项错误同(A)。

E选项:
NellieBly是exploits的所有格结构,the pioneer journalist也是exploits的所有格结构,因此,这在意思看起来像是一个叫Nellie Bly的先驱记者的exploits,在逻辑上不正确。
