句子主干是...Nikola Tesla...predicted...that...electricity...would power...
【正选翻译】
交流电的发明者尼古拉·特斯拉(Nikola Tesla)对利用尼亚加拉大瀑布来发电的前景感到兴奋,他在1890年代中期预测,尼亚加拉产生的电力有一天将为伦敦的有轨电车和巴黎的路灯供电。
【知识要点】
1,the inventor of alternating current是同位语修饰,修饰Nikola Tesla
2,主从复合句中的主句和从句都需要保持结构完整
3,同位语与其修饰对象最好紧密相连
【选项分析】
A.「误」句子结构有误,because he...是从句,he predicted...是主句,Nikola Tesla 和 he 主语重复;表目的时for producing表达不及to produce简洁优选;
B.「误」prospects为主语,谓语was,主谓一致错误;
C.「正」
D.「误」excited about…(形容词性短语)与predicted...平行作动词,需要加be动词(be excited about...),否则结构有误;表目的时for producing表达不及to produce简洁优选;
E.「误」;同位语the inventor of alternating current与其修饰对象Nikola Tesla相隔太远,中间又加入了修饰成分excited with...结构不优;表目的时for producing表达不及to produce简洁优选;
【重点点拨】
同位语与其修饰对象最好紧密相连,不要在它们中间加入其余的修饰成分,导致相隔太远。
分布在主语前后,常用的方法是:分词结构,主语,修饰成分1,修饰成分2,谓语……
A.Nikola Tesla 和 he 两个主语,排除;
B.The prospects was 主谓不一致,排除;
D.excited 前面没有 be,排除;
E.The inventor of alternating current 距离其同位语 Nikola Tesla 太远了,不佳,排除;
D:predicted 和excited并列,句子缺谓语。
B:主谓不一致
E:excited修饰对象模糊(被误读成修饰current)——且似乎句首同位语后面必须紧接修饰的主语——不然有双重主语之嫌?
并列: was excited and predicted
b )主语是the prospects,谓语动词应该是复数,was错
c)excited...... 伴随状语,主语nikola tesla,修饰predicted,ok
d)and身前身后需平行,and身后是predicted 实义谓语动词,身前excited...... 伴随状语,无法平行,错
e)主语是The inventor,Nikola Tesla,变成了2个主语,错
D选项中的这句话只是起到对后面主语的修饰作用是吗
因此,此处不需要与后面的predicted并列
可以这么理解吗
(E)同位语the inventor ac距离修饰对象NT太远
C中的excited 是做定语(吧?)
