503.Margaret Courtney-Clarke has traveled to remote dwellings in the Transvaal to photograph the art of Ndebele women, whose murals are brilliantly colored, their geometrical symmetries embellished with old and new iconography and in a style that varies from woman to woman and house to house.
(A) whose murals are brilliantly colored, their geometrical symmetries embellished with old and new iconography and in a style that varies from woman to woman and house to house
(B) whose murals are brilliantly colored, their geometrical symmetries are embellished with old and new iconography, and their style is varying among women and houses
(C) whose murals are brilliantly colored, their geometrical symmetries are embellished with old and new iconography, and they are in styles that vary from woman to woman and house to house
(D) with murals brilliantly colored, their geometrical symmetries embellished with old and new iconography, and their style varies among women and houses（A）
(E) with murals that are brilliantly colored, their geometrical symmetries embellished with old and new iconography, and their styles vary among women and houses [A]

這題我是用排除法選出A的，可是我不清楚是由什麼成分組成的。
看了大全註釋，
他說their geometrical symmetries are embellished...是獨立主格，
修飾whose murals are brilliantly colored。
可不可以請前輩們解說一下獨立主格的概念 i09

自己回一下

獨立片語 (Absolute Phrase)
一個獨立片語 (亦稱為獨立分詞 nominative absolute -- 有人稱為"獨立主格" -- 片語)通常是 (並非總是)一組包含一個名詞或代名詞和一個分詞以及任何相關修飾語的字。獨立片語並非修飾主句中某一特定字，且跟它們都沒有直接關係；反之，獨立片語係修飾整個句子、附加資料。它們都被視為插入語句，因此用一個逗點或一對逗點 [有時是一個破折號 (--) 或一對破折號] 與句子的其他部分分開。注意：獨立片語包含一個主詞 (通常被分詞所修飾)，但不含真正的動詞。

Their reputation as winners secured by victory, the New York Liberty charged into the semifinals.
The season nearly finished, Rebecca Lobo and Sophie Witherspoon emerged as true leaders.
The two superstars signed autographs into the night, their faces beaming happily.

當獨立片語的分詞是 to be 的型態時，如 being 或 having been，這個分詞往往被省略，但其意自明。

The season [being] over, they were mobbed by fans in Times Square.
[Having been] Stars all their adult lives, they seemed used to the attention.

另一種獨立片語是位在一個被修飾的名詞後面；它使主要子句語意所強調的重點凸顯出來。這種獨立片語可以介系詞片語、形容詞片語或名詞片語的型態出現。

The old firefighter stood over the smoking ruins, his senses alert to any sign of another flare-up.
His subordinates, their faces sweat-streaked and smudged with ash, leaned heavily against the firetruck.
They knew all too well how all their hard work could be undone -- in an instant.

獨立片語中所提供的資訊有時是句子中最重要的。事實上，在敘述性文章中，最重要的部分往往被 "包裹成"具有獨立片語型態的句子：

Coach Nykesha strolled onto the court, her arms akimbo and a large silver whistle clenched between her teeth.
The new recruits stood in one corner of the gym, their uniforms stiff and ill fitting, their faces betraying their anxiety.

名詞片語亦可以獨立片語的形式出現：

Your best friends, where are they now, when you need them?
And then there was my best friend Sally -- the dear girl -- who has
certainly fallen on hard times.

看來 獨立主格跟同位語好像蠻難分的
看了CD上那群牛人的討論
同位語是修飾前句中的某個名詞或整句
獨立主格的主語則跟主句無關

敢問2218大爺 , 您想知道滴 是獨立主格 vs 同位語的區分法嗎 :-$

魚教授
學生剛開始只是不懂什麼是獨立主格
去CD上找資料時才發現獨立主格跟同位語很像
所以我在第三樓自己murmur了一下

有什麼問題嗎？是不是我哪裡弄錯了？
:-$ :-$ :-$

[魚]

:-$ , 實不相瞞 , 小的很想偷偷告訴2218同志.

小的自身的經驗發現 : 能不能具體區分兩者的不同似乎不是ETS的考試重心
(小的至今尚未發現有哪個題目是將同位語跟獨立分詞片語混在一起要你撿出來滴)

但是 ,如果同志能夠體悟兩者之間的差異,並將心得傳授與我等同胞

那將是我輩一大福音啊 (Y)

[Pufa]

也對喔.....
唉 我真是拿了熱臉去貼ETS的冷屁股(d20)

魚教授真是一語驚醒夢中人 嚇得我x滾xx失了魂~

[魚]

2218 , 我知道這道題您一定沒問題 , 但順道讓我貼一下這道題的解法,可以嗎 :-$

[Pufa]

魚姐你說這甚麼話呀
當然可以呀 哈哈哈
你好好玩喔^^

多討論 咖啡店的資料才會越來越多^^

最近有一些朋友會跟我討論做題的速度, SC我一道題的平均時間是30秒~1分半
當然也有超過2分鐘的 :'( .

厚顏以此題為例,寫出我自己讀題的方式, (不一定是最好的方法 :-$ ),如果能對大家有起一絲絲幫助,那就太好了

1.讀完題後看到 大概判斷考點在指代誤謬 (由關代劃線) / 修飾對象歧異(with) 上

2. 看 A--C , whose~~ 這塊
發現B , C 都有偽裝的很差勁的 ", and" 三段式平衡 不選

3. 本來應該先看with 修飾對象的問題, 但是直覺告訴我=>先去看",and" , 果真
發現與(2)同樣的問題 ,並且附送their 指代ambiguity
所以D / E 都不選啦

4.回頭確認A 沒啥缺點 就選啦

醬差不多30秒

[Pufa]

恩恩！很有啟發~~
謝謝魚姐 (Y)

題外話：
我不知道為什麼BC三段式段平衡不能選
不過我是看B的最後varying among women and houses 和A的varies from woman to woman and house to house不同所以先把B排除。
在A跟C之間猶豫時，看到C
they are in styles that vary from woman to woman and house to house
很囉唆，所以不選。

我做SC大全時，20題平均用了20~30分鐘。
正確率很可憐，大概二十題要錯四到八題.........
不知道大家的情況如何....
