or作為并列連詞的用法向來(lái)簡(jiǎn)單而好理解,個(gè)人認(rèn)為or在這里連接的是“for them”和“for them to do it for you”,這兩個(gè)短語(yǔ)在這句話中都是作狀語(yǔ).
這句話的難點(diǎn)在于它的意思表達(dá),尤其是后半句?我個(gè)人的理解是for them to do it for you,可以看成是for sb to do sth,那么后半句完整來(lái)看應(yīng)該是You agree to do it for them to do it for you.這里for sb to do sth做目的狀語(yǔ),表示你這么做的目的,翻譯成中文是,你為了讓他們?yōu)槟阕鲞@件事,同意做這件事.
整句話You agree to do it for them or for them to do it for you.的翻譯是,你同意為他們做這件事,或者你為了讓他們?yōu)槟阕鲞@件事,而同意做這件事.太拗口了,但是意思應(yīng)該就是這樣.“for them”和“for them to do it for you”都是做表示目的的狀語(yǔ).
由此看來(lái),肯定不能寫成你想的那樣.
