老师新年好,在BECHIGHER听力有一句话:....So wewent to a firm of consultants who specialize in helping small businesses. 请问这里Who引导的关系分句修饰的对象是哪个？是afirm of consultants一个整体名词词组，还是firm,还是consultants?由于后面关系分句的谓语动词是复数形式specialize.请老师各抒己见。
.So we went to a firm of consultants who specialize in helping small businesses
解答：依据定语从句谓语动词用“复数形式specialize” 可以得知 关系代词指代前面复数“先行词” 即“consultants”
备注：a firm of consultants 这个名词短语“中心词是firm” 是单数，of consultants 介词短语作定语修饰“firm”所以不可能是定语从句修饰先行词。
a firm of consultants who specialize in helping small businesses. 【who代替先行词consultants并在定语从句作主语成分】
几种不同修饰关系剖析如下
【1】of consultants 为介词短语修饰“firm”
【2】who specialize in helping small businesses为定语从句修饰“consultants”
【3】 of consultants who specialize in helping small businesses 介词短语修饰“firm”
