[問題]perp一題

[auguding]

The cottontail rabbit population in Orange, california, has increased unchecked in recent years as a result of the removal of the native fox population and the cleaning of surrounding woodlands.
(C)years, resulting from the removing of
想請問的是
C錯的最大原因是在於RESULT FROM的用法還是THE REMOVING應該為REMOVAL呢
謝謝

[Jen-Cheng]

個人覺得 , resulting from的用法是沒錯的，用分詞來修飾前面整句，而且意思是對的，C應該是 the removal of ....有名詞形式，就不要企圖用分詞代名詞

open to discuss

[hcgh]

, resulting from的用法可能有錯
S + V, Ving，AT中有兩種意思
1. 分詞代替連接詞，表伴隨之意
2. 表前面一整句話所產生的結果
不管是上面那一種用法，Ving的動作都要與前面的主要動詞發生的時間點是一致的
resulting from引出原因，不符合1, 2的用法，所以C選項是錯的

另外，發文時請記得把所有的選項都列出來，以利後人研讀

請問一下 (A) 不算是雙重所有格嗎？

[dibert8]

從修飾和被修飾的角度看就不會有雙重所有格 (of N's) 的問題了.
the removal 是第一個 of 的受詞, the native fox population 是第二個 of 的受詞.
