问题: 一道英语选择题1

Wolfman does not have the dark soul of a tortured artist, nor_about the pointlessness of everyday existence.
A.broods B. was he brooding C. brooding D. does he brood
please explain your answer

解答:

D does he brood
这是一个平行式叙述(parallelism)
前面的动词是have, have前面是用he does not来叙述,
所以当后面是从动词接起时,也要用类似的手法,即nor does he
he does not have, nor does he brood

wolfman does not have the dark soul ... nor the broods of some pointless everyday existence(不是A,后面也得改一下)
也成立,注意这里broods是名词了,所以要与前面名词平行
does not have (the XXX nor the YYY)


wolfman, not having...nor brooding... ,is blah blah blah
wolfman was not having... nor was he brooding...
