所谓“夹心”,既可以作为定语修饰主语,又可以作为状语修饰后面的谓语。夹心修饰也是GMAT语考试中一个难点,今天我们就来说一下GMAT语法考试“夹心修饰”的内容。
夹心修饰的理解:
所以歧义修饰,是因为引发了不同的理解,而并不是语法上是否会有不同的修饰,所谓夹心修饰也是这个原则。很多人对“夹心修饰”都有过一个误解,认为S, v-ing, V. + O.结构中,v-ing既可以往前修饰S,也可以往后修饰V就是夹心,而实际上夹心并不是“可以往前修饰S,也可以往后修饰V” 。在S, v-ing, V. + O.这样的表达中,v-ing约定俗成只伴随修饰动词。

句式:
After analyzing data gathered by ...scientists report that...due to....
思路:
读原句,句子结构不完整,扫视选项,有分词在句首,考虑逻辑主语。
选项:
A. 在题目中如果能用主动语态的情况尽量不用被动;后面分词的逻辑主语不对;
B. 在题目中如果能用主动语态的情况尽量不用被动;as 后不能跟动名词having become;后面应该直接加名词;都表示作为成为的意思;
C. 正确;scientists做analyzing data的主语;
D. gathered by weather satellites夹心修饰;as 后不能跟动名词having become;后面应该直接加名词;都表示作为成为的意思;
E. 句子结构不完整,主句没有谓语动词。

翻译:
因为1933年的法令使美国公民携带黄金犯罪处以坐牢处罚,移民们发现他们在到达美国的时候就必须交出身上的全部黄金了。
句式:
Because of …, immigrants found that …
思路:
主谓一致的动词形式不同;阐明法规的内容用ing形式;分词短语放在句中,就常出现逻辑主语混乱,因为可能从语法上说同时可以向前或者向后修饰。
选项:
A. hold与a United States citizen主谓不一致;making放在句中夹心修饰;
B. hold与a United States citizen主谓不一致;阐明法律法规的内容习惯使用doing;with短语做伴随状语,逻辑主语为immigrants,表达的是law是为immigrants拥有的,逻辑错误;
C. A law passed in 1993 that…有作为immigrants同位语的歧义;法律法规习惯使用doing;
D. 正确;Making紧跟修饰词law,作为法律法规内容解释;
E. a law being passed"中的being表达逻辑意思不正确,being更多表达状态,而这里的law早已在1933年就passed了。
