应该选什么？分析一下句子吧

Answer 1

He is the terrorist wanted by the police ______ arrest a reward was offered.
A.for whom B.about whom C.for whose D.about whose
应该选什么？分析一下句子吧
答：C。
译：他就是那个被警梁薯察通辑的恐怖分子，警方悬赏一笔酬金来拘捕他。
析：wanted by the police是过去分词短语作限制性的后置定语。后面的是由介词+whose arrest 引起的定语从句，其主语为a reward,是一个被动语态的句子。应为非限制性的定语从句。（前面可能本来有一个逗号的），将从句还原则为：A reward was offered ___ whose arrest. 这里应键胡用介词for表法“为了”，arrest是名词不是动词。如改为主动词，则应加上一个主稿渣拦语：The police offered a reward for his arrest. (his--> the terrorist's -->whose)

追问

arrest词性是名词？

追答

对。它既可作动词又可作名词。这里肯定是作名词用，作关系代词whose(相当于物主代词）的宾语。不可能作动词，因为如果它是从句中的谓语动词，那么从句中的was offered是什么？如果arrest 是动词，其宾语是a reward,这样的动宾搭配得当吗？ was offered 的主语在哪里？
这些问题，只要对定语从句进行一下句子成份分析，就知道了。

Answer 2

He is the terrorist wanted by the police A arrest a reward was offered.这句话是说：主句为：团誉He is the terrorist 。 wanted by the police 为terrorist 的后置定语， ______ arrest a reward was offered.是后置定语中police的定语重句，其中， ______ arrest a reward 是定语重句的主语，因为后面arrest是动词，所以排除whose选项，whose后面+名词。再结合句子意思，说“警察奖励arrest的人，所以用whom，又是对，，，穗迟的人，所以应该选for whomw!选塌族段A。比较难的英语语法题！
