问SAT语法指代问题
1.指代
Almost all animals that hibernate prepare for hibernation during summer by eating large amounts of food,which they convert to thick layers of fat.
这句话语法上面是对的,但请问they的指代清楚么?如果按句意理解they指代animals,但为什么不能指代eating large amounts of food的呢?
求教语法达人
答
which 引导的是定语从句,修饰 amounts of food.如果正常语序的话 应该是 they(animals) convert which( amounts of food) to thick layer of fat.谢谢您的回答,这句话可以写成Almost all animals that hibernate prepare for hibernation during summer by eating large amounts of food to which they convert thick layers of fat.吗?当然我们可以把to 提到which前面,但是一般不这样写,因为convert sth to sth是个固定结构,如果提前to的话容易引起歧义。
