GRE 難句詳解

001 倒裝+省略 5

That sex ratio will be favored which maximizes the number of descendants an individual will have and hence the number of gene copies transmitted.

分析

  • __That sex ratio__ will be favored

    __[which maximizes the number of descendants (that an individual will have) and hence maximizes the number of gene copies (transmitted)].__

  • S + V + adj子句(修飾 S)
  • whcih 引導的 adj 子句其實是修飾 S,但若擺在 S 之後會使 V 隔到很後面才出現,且 V 也不長,會形成頭重腳輕之勢,故倒裝
  • which 子句裡其實還有一層,an individual will have 其實是一形容詞子句:(that) an individual will have,因關係代名詞在子句裡當受詞可省略
  • hence 之後省略重複成分: maximizes

標誌

That sex ratio will be favored [__which maximizes the number of descendants__ (__an individual will have__) and hence __the number of gene copies (transmitted)__].
