实例题目:
Construction of the Roman Colosseum, which was officially known as the Flavian Amphitheater, began in A.D. 69, during the reign of Vespasian, was completed a decade later, during the reign of Titus, who opened the Colosseum with a one-hundred-day cycle of religious pageants, gladiatorial games, and spectacles.
(A) which was officially known as the Flavian Amphitheater, began in A.D. 69, during the reign of Vespasian,
(B) officially known as the Flavian Amphitheater, begun in A.D. 69, during the reign of Vespasian, and
(C) which was officially known as the Flavian Amphitheater, began in A.D. 69, during the reign of Vespasian, and
(D) officially known as the Flavian Amphitheater and begun in A.D. 69, during the reign of Vespasian it
(E) officially known as the Flavian Amphitheater, which was begun in A.D. 69, during the reign of Vespasian, and
选项分析:
(A)which was officially known as the Flavian Amphitheater, began in A.D. 69, during the reign of Vespasian,
【错误】 句子结构:“began”和“was completed”同为“Construction of the Roman Coliseum”,但一个主谓结构中的两个谓语动词之间不能没有“and”、“or”、“but”之类的连接词连接。
(B)officially known as the Flavian Amphitheater, begun in A.D. 69, during the reign of Vespasian, and
【错误】 平行结构:“begun”单独不能做谓语动词,但却与“was completed”用“and”平行在一起,两者语法功能不一致,无法平行。
(C)which was officially known as the Flavian Amphitheater, began in A.D. 69, during the reign of Vespasian, and
【正确】 定语从句“which was officially known as……”正确地就近修饰了“Roman Coliseum”。“began”和“was completed”(虽然表面形式上有差异——一个主动,一个被动,但本质上都是谓语——功能一致,概念对等)正确地用“and”平行在一起做“Construction of the Roman Coliseum”的谓语,形成了主句完整的主谓结构。
【大意】 官名为Amphitheater的罗马竞技场的建造工作开始于A.D. 69的Vespasian 年间,完工于十年后的Titus年间,Titus用100天一循环的游行、角斗和壮观场景启用之。
(D)officially known as the Flavian Amphitheater and begun in A.D. 69, during the reign of Vespasian it
【错误】 句子结构:“it”替换“Construction of the Roman Coliseum”成为“was completed”的主语,而原有的“Construction of the Roman Coliseum”丧失了谓语动词,成为了一个孤立的名词性结构。
(E)officially known as the Flavian Amphitheater, which was begun in A.D. 69, during the reign of Vespasian, and
【错误】 句子结构:“was begun”和“was completed”平行在一起作“which”引导的定语从句的谓语,而主句中“Construction of the Roman Coliseum”则没有任何谓语动词。
解题思路:
除了(C)选项,主谓结构内部均存在严重的结构错误,因此选择(C)。
