In the country there no honking horns,no diesel trucks, no pollution—just the sounds of wind rustling the tree leaves and red squirrels chattering in the distant oaks and cool creek water rushing down its endless course.
请问老师,是三个并列动名词短语作存在句的真的主语,还是目前分词作定语分别修饰wind, red squirrels, 与cool creek water?
谢谢老师。
波折号在此表示转折,there are no A, no B, no C--just the sounds D and E and F.
波折号后面省略了there are. just the sounds为真的主语,of+动名词复合结构为sounds的定语。
有趣的是:no A, no B, no C三项并列用逗号连接,D and E and F各项并列成分之间都用and. 其用途是一样的,即表示列举不完整,只是举例。
