※ 引述《si4410dy (si4410dy)》之銘言：
: 113.
: In A.D. 391,[ resulting from the destruction of the largest library of the
: acient world at Alexandria,] later generations lost all but the Iliad and
: Odyssey among Greek epics, most of the poetry of Pindar and Sappho, and dozens
: of plays by Aeschylus and Euripides
: 想問關於這題的E
: E)Alexandria's largest library of the ancient world was destroyed, and the
: result was
: 看到解答說明這個選項是run on 但是想請問,and 不能算是conj嗎?
the result was後面還有另外一組主詞動詞, 也就是later generations lost
如此一來這兩組主詞動詞就沒有對應的連接詞了！產生流水句的問題～
: 另一題
: 25. (25704-!-item-!-188;#058&002607)
: There is a widespread belief in the United States and Western Europe that
: young people have [ a smaller commitment to work and a career than their
: parents and grandparents ] and that the source of the change lies in the
: collapse of the "work ethic."
: (C) a smaller commitment to work and a career than that of their parents and
: grandparents
: (D) less of a commitment to work and a career than their parents and
: grandparents had
: 想請問c選項 我是看到that of 就把他理解為是young people的commitment to work
: and career和grandparents的commitment to work and career做比較 而且有
: that...and that 看起來比d選項更平行 所以就選c了
比較對象應該是young people和 their parents and grandparents
: D選項 為什麼不會有後面and that沒有平行對象的問題? 是因為是不強迫但補出更好嗎?
: 麻煩大家幫忙解惑了 謝謝
簡單介紹一下, 比較結構講究平衡對稱, 所以D選項比較結構前後句還原如下：
1. young people have a commitment to work and a career
2. their parents and grandparents had (a commitment to work and a career)
比較結構有個重要觀念, 就是後句出現前句相同資訊可以省略,
但是省略之後詞性不能動, 還原回來也才會平衡對稱,
但是C選項的of其實在語意上和前句的have是一樣的, 表達“有”的含義,
但是of是介系詞, 還原回來不可能變成動詞have
