题目分析:
本题长度较长,但难度不算大。大概意思为:
有很多美国的土地被乳浆草侵占了。乳浆草是一个从Eurasia来的草本植物。这个草本植物让小牛长了口腔溃疡并且代替了草和其它的小牛食物,让牧场一文不值。
选项分析:
A选项:划线部分最后的分词短语displacing grasses and other cattle food是a herbaceous plant gives mouth sores to cattle的伴随状语。但在逻辑上,由于“长口腔溃疡”和“代替草和其它的小牛食物”是乳浆草的两个方面事情,之间没有逻辑关系,因此,两者应该用并列句来表示,不能让一者为另一者的伴随状语(若是伴随状语,则两者变为了修饰关系)。
另外,displace句和render句之间应用修饰关系而不是并列关系。这是因为,代替了草和其它的小牛食物的结果是“让牧场一文不值(render rangeland worthless)”。
B选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
C选项:按照本选项的语法结构,having milky sap that gives mouth sores to cattle和displacing grasses and other cattle food是并列关系,但在逻辑上,两者不能并列。拥有 milky sap是这个草本植物的固有属性(无论这个草在哪里),而“代替草和其它的小牛食物”是这个草本植物入侵美国后的结果。
D选项:本选项缺少谓语动词。选项末的displaces和renders均为单数动词,不可能作为复数名词about 5 million acres in the United States的谓语动词。
E选项:本选项缺少谓语动词。
为什么A的 ", displacing ..." 有修饰歧义, 既可以修饰主句,也可以修饰that从句; 但是B的", rendering ..."就没有修饰歧义呢?
应该都要先考虑就近修饰,就近修饰不合理才会考虑跳跃修饰到主句,而跳跃修饰不优。
A 选项 就近修饰that从句 语义不合理,并没有伴随或因果关系。跳跃修饰主句更不合理,逻辑主语变成acres。
B选项 就近修饰that从句结构语义合理。跳跃修饰主句结构不优,语义不合理。
