【答】这是一个很难的问题,关键是double的词性问题。首先,排除double 是动词,因为在本句中,它不可能以动词原形的身份出现,也没有以非谓语的形式出现。它实际是一个前置限定词,即形容词。
1. what the floodplain could support是名词性从句,what没有疑问的含义,在这里指事物,作support的宾语。double是前置限定词(形容词),作what the floodplain could support的定语。意为“双倍的涝渍平原地所能够承受的东西”。support:支持,支撑,承受,承担。
2. 把double what the floodplain could support总体看作一个形容词短语,作left them with a population的结果状语。
3. under the stress 修饰collapsed(崩溃),作原因状语。
