Re: [問題] PP3-SC-168
※ 引述《BenAffleck (班艾佛列克)》之銘言:
: ※ 引述《chenemily (天天保持好心情)》之銘言:
: : 168.The first shots of the American Revolution, fired at Lexington and
: : Concord, Massachusetts, were, according to legend, heard around the world,
: : but news of these shots, which were sent by swift messenger, took four days
: : in reaching New York City as well as another additional eleven days to reach
: : Charleston, South Carolina.
: : A. shots, which were sent by swift messenger, took four days in reaching New
: : York City as well as another additional eleven days
: : B. shots that was sent by swift messenger took four days in order to reach
: : New York City, and also another eleven days
: : C. shots that were sent by swift messenger took four days to reach New York
: : City and another eleven days
: : D. shots took four days by swift messenger in order to reach New York City
: : and another eleven days in addition
: : E. shots took four days by swift messenger to reach New York City and another
: : eleven days
: : 我想請問C & E 我做的時候刪到剩CE 正解是E但我選擇C
: : C的that是指代news 所以應該是單數
: C 的that 指代的不是 news 喔
: 我如果沒有記錯的話 (不好意思手邊沒有Manhattan SC... 我會快去用一本來…)
: Manhattan SC 裡面把 that 定義為 touch modifier
: 也就是說 it modifies the noun it "touches"

: 在這個題目中 that 前面最先碰到的名詞是 shots
: 所以 that 是在修飾 shots 而不是 news
可是Ron是這麼說的 but "news" is singular. so
that modification doesn't work, because "were" is a plural verb.
所以R認為 that是指代 news
然後 一題類似題
SC-PP3-171
C. Marconi conceived of the radio as (a tool for private conversation)(that
could substitute for the telephone); instead, it has become
這題是再考由輕到重
That也是修飾radio
所以that是不是不一定修飾離他最近的先行詞呢?
麻煩大大再解惑一下
感恩
