原句:I must try to make as logical a survey as I can of this project which I have undertaken.
请教老师:
上句能否改写成:
a)I must try to make a survey of this project which I have undertaken as logical as I can.
或
b)I must try to make as logical a survey of this project which I have undertaken as I can.
请问,不考虑其他原因,假如单从语法上来讲,a), b)都正不正确?
第一种改写是不对的。第二种先说定语从句,改写后使得结构很松散。只有如此语序才是正确的:
I must try to make as logical a survey as I can of this project which I have undertaken.
本句含有比较从句,比较项是作定语的 logical。同样作定语,但语义需要形容词 logaical 在先,定语从句在后。因此比较从句也随之在先。所以地方不可更改换。
就像下面的句子一样:
This is a good idea which he put forward. (正)
This is an idea which he put forward good. (误)
