题目分析:
略。
选项分析:
A选项:分词短语While studying the genetic makeup of corn是伴随状语,动词study在字面上的主语为主句主语a new class of mutant genes,这是不正确的。在逻辑上,研究玉米的基因组成的,只能是人,而不能是基因序列。
B选项:While studying the genetic makeup of corn逻辑主语错误同选项(A)。另外,句末的分词短语 leading to greater understanding of cell differentiation也是伴随状语。其字面主语也是a new class of mutant genes。类似地,在逻辑上,能“给我们带来对细胞分化的更深层次的理解”的只能是发现这件事,不能是单纯的基因序列。
C选项:代词it的指代对象只能是单数名词,不能是句子。因此,lead的主语错误同选项(B)。
D选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。a discovery that led to greater understanding of cell differentiation是同位语。
E选项:整个句子缺少谓语动词。
同位结构的特征
a)起修饰语的作用,一般用于修饰名词或名词短语;同位语解释的是整个名词,不是名短中某个词,故同位语不是核心词修饰。
b)必须对其修饰对象具有解释力;
c)位置:名词前或名词后,一般在修饰对象的后面;
d)不影响主谓一致(谓语应该和主语保持一致,而不是和同位语);
e)同位结构中名词的数可以和其修饰对象的数不一致。
