句子分析:
The selection is unrivalled and the prices high, although the sales offer some great bargains, and the store's own clothing line is reasonable.
此句中,the prices high 为什么没有动词?
张道真《英语语法大全》(P.375)指出:当一个句子中有两个或更多相同的词出现时,其中一个必须保留,另外的则最好省略,以避免重复,使句子简练。你的句子的主句部分是一个并列句,两个分句的谓语分别由is unrivalled和is high构成,第二个分句谓语的动词is可以省略,以避免重复。以下是《英语语法大全》中有关动词省略的例句,你可以参考一下:
-V省略:
The loser is sad, but the winner (is) happy.
He studies maths, but his brother (studies) dancing.
