选择题,语法好的来

The policy,except_prohibited by law,allows .......

A.that

b.where

c.what

选哪个,说明清楚理由就给分哦.

答:C

译:这项政策,除法律禁止外, 允许。。。

析:问问题者设了个陷井,所以都不“实名”问问题。这题目是楼主自己创造的(不错啊,能自己出题考别人了!),因为网上找不到类似的题目。但我找到了很多类似的用法。

except where prohibited by law是习惯用法。本不必进行语法分析的。

既然是题目,还是要分析一下。

大家都 知道, 主句是The policy allows ..., 逗号之间的是插入语,是一个介词except +宾语构成的介词短语。except 意为:除。。。之外,后可跟名词或名词性的东西,如动名词或名词性从句。

这三个词都可以看作连词引导名词性从句,但它们的后面只有一个过去分词短语,不是谓语形式(is prohibited by law), 所以不能选C。(what is prohibited by law是被法律所禁止的[东西])

that引导的名词性从句则连主语都没有,更不用说谓语了。where也一样不行,因为作为连接副词,后面的不是句子。

所以这三个词看成连接词引导名词性从句的想法不对。

有人将that看成指示代词或替代词,后跟一个作定语的过去分词短语prohibited by law, 看似最有可能,但是,别忘了,这是一个限制性的定语,而指示代词that是不需要一个限制性定语的。如果是替代词用法,同一件事物用it, 同一名词(多为抽象不可数名词)不同定语用that,则前面的policy也应有一个别的定语(比较:The climate in Beijing is not as mild as that in Nanjing. 中that则为替代用法),即使将这个that理解成the policy, 则The policy, except the policy prohibited by law , allows ...

显然不合逻辑。因为except 是除。。。之外,同一政策,不可再说,“除了被法律禁止的这个政策外”,这样的说法。

再来看这个Where选项,先从网上找一些例句:

Except where prohibited by law the warranty is non-transferable.

All non-defective, undamaged products are subject to a 15% restocking fee (except where prohibited by law) if returned opened or in a non-factory ...

Except where prohibited by law, 3M and seller will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from the 3M product, whether direct, indirect, ...

Except where prohibited by law, the Goods are offered for sale and are sold subject to the following conditions:

我们再来分析一下这个where

where作为连接副词,可以引导两类名词性从句:

1. 由特殊疑问句变来的,仍带有疑问性质的名词性从句:

I don't know where he lives. <--Where does he live?

2. 相当于一个名词(the place地方)+where定语从句,表示“那个(些)。。。的地方”

如:This is where Luxun was born.=This is the place where Luxun was born.

这是Luxun出生的地方。

大家见过Where necessary吧=where it is necessary 有必要的地方

where it is prohibited by law 就是法律所禁止的地方(方面)

except where it is prohibited by law =except the place(s) where it is prohibited by law

是除了法律禁止的地方(部分),

经过省略,就是where prohibited by law.

分析完毕。
