however放主句和從句之間,被逗號隔開,到底修飾的是主句呢,還是從句呢?
An arrest made by a Midville police officer is provisional until the officer has taken the suspect to the police station and the watch commander has officially approved the arrest.Such approval is denied if the commander judges that the evidence on which the provisional arrest is based is insufficient.A government efficiency expert has observed that almost all provisional arrests meet the standards for adequacy of evidence that the watch commanders enforce.The expert has therefore recommended that because the officers’ time spent obtaining approval is largely wasted,the watch commander’s approval no longer be required.This recommendation should be rejected as dangerous,however,since there is no assurance that the watch commanders’ standards will continue to be observed once approval is longer required.
最后一句話,This recommendation should be...,however,我認為修飾的應(yīng)該是前一句話.但這樣一放會不會,就搞不清他到底是在哪轉(zhuǎn)折.中文直譯的話,我會認為他是在說：‘’ 但是,since.required.
