接受曹老师的建议!扩展一下,把我的解释输入到回答栏里。

望网友接受这一观点:有的情况下,独立主格结构可以倒装。据我观察,在独立主格结构中出现 among among 前有其他形容词时就可以倒装。独立主格结构其他倒装的情况目前尚未见过,欢迎老师和同学们补充。所以建议,可以模仿,但不可推而广之。

网友的例句:So a constant preoccupation of American higher education is this tension between the competitive, ambitious nature of institutions and the interests of government in promoting important public goals, primary among them broad access and widespread success for all students.

primary among them broad access and widespread success for all students,该独立主格结构的逻辑主语是 broad access and widespread success for all students,正常语序 broad access and widespread success for all students (being) primary among them,其中 them 指代 important public goals


又据我观察,among 前有形容词的情况下,独立主格结构都用倒装形式(这个观察结果不一定对):


网友的例句(从略)。


More cheerful types, chief among them Joe Biden, America’s president, point to an impressively resilient economy and a labour market that is booming despite the swiftest series of interest-rate rises since Volcker’s era.

Mr Trump’s diagnosis raises an array of questions about the election, chief among them whether it will help or hurt his chances of winning another term.

But Mr Petro’s challenge is not just to defeat his rivals, chief among them Federico Gutiérrez, a centre-right former mayor of Medellín.

Most democracies see a need to tilt the scales against change only in special cases, prime among them constitutional amendments.

Among 前无其他词时,如果独立主格的逻辑主语过长,可以倒装,也可以不倒装:


倒装:New weapons—among them hypersonic missiles that are hard to detect and shoot down, and space and cyber weapons that threaten command-and-control systems—may unsettle the nuclear balance.


不倒装:One reason is that some leaders, Mr Biden seemingly among them, fear that equipping Ukraine with F-16s would enable it to strike targets deep into Russian territory and would thus be seen by the Kremlin as escalatory, once again sparking threats of nuclear retaliation.

The party declares certain goals as in the country’s collective interest—order, national security and economic development among them—and chooses how to achieve them.
