[r123581]

105. Originally developed for detecting air pollutants, a technique called proton-induced x-ray emission, which can quickly analyze the chemical elements in almost any substance without destroying it, is finding uses in medicine, archaeology, and criminology.

(A) Originally developed for detecting air pollutants, a technique called proton-induced x-ray emission, which can quickly analyze the chemical elements in almost any substance without destroying it,

(B) Originally developed for detecting air pollutants, having the ability to analyze the chemical elements in almost any substance without destroying it, a technique called proton induced x-ray emission

(C) A technique originally developed for detecting air pollutants, called proton-induced x-ray emission, which can quickly analyze the chemical elements in almost any substance without destroying it,

(D) A technique originally developed for detecting air pollutants, called proton-induced x-ray emission, which has the ability to analyze the chemical elements in almost any substance quickly and without destroying it,

(E) A technique that was originally developed for detecting air pollutants and has the ability to analyze the chemical elements in almost any substance quickly and without destroying the substance, called proton-induced x-ray emission,

正確答案是A

疑惑的地方是C和D
在OG11的解釋分別如下
C Called proton-induced X-ray emission should be placed next to a technique and should not be set off by commas; relative clause introduced by which incorrectly and illogically modifies emission


D Called proton-induced X-ray emission should be placed next to a technique and should not be set off by commas; relative clause introduced by which incorrectly and illogically modifies emission; has the ability to is wordy

為什麼C,D的which 不能修飾emission? 哪裡illogical?
正確答案A的which 為什麼可以修飾emission？

想了一陣子了 ，請各位高手解惑..謝謝

[souljuice]

會illogical
是因為emission"放射"不可能是analyze這個動詞的行為者
不合邏輯

至於為什麼A選項不會造成修飾歧意
我想是優選下的結果
隨然A有錯誤修飾emission的可能
可是c跟d選項在其他地方有更明顯的錯誤

歡迎討論

[juyu]

I think maybe in (A) we can easily refer "which" to "a technique", but for (C) and (D) we are hard to do so.

Welcome for further discussion :-)

[r123581]

謝謝兩位的回應...
這樣說起來..(A)的which 是代a technique囉？
可是我記得的文法裡 是說which是代最接近的名詞(emission)

我在想會不會是因為 ..(A)a technique called proton-induced x-ray emission裡
a technique 與 proton-induced x-ray emission 有一個連帶關係叫called
所以即使which 代的是emission也會與a technique 有關係
不知道這樣想對不對..
請大家指導....

[souljuice]

不然就是想成把called proton-induced x-ray emission
當作修飾technique的過去分詞
可是主體其實還是technique

可是最終我還是覺得是優選下的答案
因為which不像that可以跳躍修飾
所以which修飾最接近名詞的規定還是要遵守
既然題目選項把每一個都搞得不合邏輯
那就由其他的錯誤作判斷吧!

恩...我也這麼想過...

當然，但假如可以知道更棒的錯因或對因 那就會很有收穫啦～～～

anyway謝謝souljuice的回答..

在C,D,E選項，OG都解釋:Called Proton-induced X-tray emission should be place next to a technique
請問為什麼一定要擺在technique 後面呢?

謝謝

[ergh]

因為依照句意這個技術就是Proton-induced X-tray emission
此外，依照句意來看， which應該是修飾a technique.
若有錯，還請指正。

, which 非限定用法:目的在補充資訊
(C)(D) 所以called前面不能以","隔開,這樣會導致which... 修飾不到 A technique...; which... 去修飾 called... :不通
called 要接在 technique 之後修飾它; polutants <> emission

[ggethan]

這題看了幾次 今天總算知道為什麼ets對(c)(d)的解釋如下:
relative clause introduced by which incorrectly and illogically modifies emission
先來看(c)
(C) A technique originally developed for detecting air pollutants, called proton-induced x-ray emission, which can quickly analyze the chemical elements in almost any substance without destroying it,
其中主詞是A technique,原題意要說明a tecnique也就是proton-induced x-ray emission可以quickly analyze...
但在(c)中, called proton-induced x-ray emission, 為插入句,因此which變成代替air poluutants,如此一來當然不合句意,污染物怎麼會quickly analyzeㄋ

(d)也犯了一樣的錯

回到ets的解釋裡,...incorrectly and illogically modifies emission 的意思是說,which句意上想要修飾emission,但是因為把, called proton-induced x-ray emission,變成插入句,所以使其修飾不到emission反而會修飾到pollutants

此種...N,插入句,which/whose...的句型也可以在verbal 11th No.109中看到
...many musicians, including Elvis Presley and Jerry Garcia, whose music differed from...
這裡, including Elvis Presley and Jerry Garcia,為分詞修飾當插入句用,所以whose會代替musicians而不是
Elvis Presley and Jerry Garcia

總之還是要很清楚句子的結構才不會選錯,不知道大家的看法如何,

[dibert8]

很好的理解!
做 GMAT 的題目很難一條規則用到底:以 700 分實力的思維去做 500 分的題目,會因為想太多選到錯的選項;以 500 分的方法做 700 分的題目,會不知道題目在考哪裡.或許 GMAT 也在考我們知不知道題目的意圖.

[justdoncu]

所以說，which前是插入句時
就要跳躍過插入句
修飾插入句前最後個一個東西嗎
不知道是這個意思嗎
謝謝
可是og寫著which incorrectly and illogically modify emission
所以which 不是上兩層所說得跳躍修飾到air pollutants阿
不知道到底是怎麼樣阿

[dibert8]

(C) (D) 的 which 就近指代原則,會代到 emission -- OG 的正規解法
把逗點中間看成插句, which 會代到 pollutants -- 變化型,有可能,但是 (D) 動詞不一致,應該不適用這個;以 OG 解法優先
兩種方式句意都不合理.
