201.Re: 急问一个问题,请大牛解答!!
The survey appears to suffer from several statistical problems, any of which renders
the survey's results unreliable.
我们从这个句子中可以看出,any of which renders the survey's results unreliable
是一个非限定性定语从句,它对不对呢?我们一起来看一下:
从句的主语应该是 any of which, which 指代的是problems,还原一下,可以看得清楚,
其实就是:any of problems renders the survey's results unreliable.意思就是其中
任何一个问题都致使 the survey's results unreliable.
所以,我的观点是,这句话在语法功能上是对的。如果把any of 去掉,有两点不妥:
(1)语法错误,前面指代的是problems,后面动词renders应该是render;
(2)语气上弱了很多,不能表达问题的严重性,任何一个问题都可以致使the survey's results
unreliable。
