When asked,"Do you consider yourself an optimistic or pessismistic person?" 53 percent of the students replied"optimistic",with 21 percent choosing"pessismistic",and 26 percent "unsure".
1、此时独立主格是补充说明主句,若要还原成状语从句应该用什么连词呢?
2、可否与主句形成并列?53 percent of the students replied"optimistic",21 percent chose"pessismistic",and 26 percent "unsure".
3、with独立主格结构又或者分词作状语表随着、补充说明或具体举例的状况下,还原成状语从句应该用什么连词?
先剖析该句结构:
When asked,"Do you consider yourself an optimistic or pessismistic person?" (省略成分的时间状语从句)53 percent of the students replied"optimistic", (主句)with 21 percent choosing"pessismistic", and 26 percent "unsure".(独立主格结构,作主句谓语动词的补充性状语)
网友的三个问题可以归为一个问题,就是:在句意不变的首要条件下,怎么样把独立主格结构改为从句或者并列分句。所谓用什么连词,其实就是改用什么从句或者分句。
这个问题,不是用一句话就能回答的。重点要看独立主格结构跟句子意思和谓语动词之间存在何种关系。只有明确了这种关系,才大概选择不一样的从句或分句来替换独立主格结构。
正如网友所言,可以改为:53 percent of the students replied"optimistic", 21 percent chose"pessismistic", and 26 percent (chose)"unsure". (三个并列分句)
但,即使替换了,意思也差不多,但独立主格结构毕竟是一种附着成分,修饰成分,次要成分。与并列句表达的平行关系仍有差别。
