5 如何分析下列《经济学人》句子中such的用法

句子1:They all had terrible internal injuries, such as had not been seen in Europe, America or Australia since the 19th century. Here these were endemic, owing to the malnutrition that meant the bodies of Ethiopian girls remained small.


句子2:Boris Johnson, Britain's prime minister, hates the notion of Brexit extensions, such as those his prdecessor, Theresa May, had to accept repeatedly.


个人感觉,似乎有点像是非限定性关系分句的先行词,请各位老师解惑。

such as

一般词典的解释是:of the kind specified  

(中文意思是“类同”而不是指“同一”)

They all had terrible internal injuries, such as had not been seen in Europe, ...

<= ... internal injuries, [which were] such as had not been seen in Europe,...>

= ... internal injuries, [which were those] of the kind that had not been seen in Europe,

或者更简单点,

= ... terrible internal injuries, like those that had not been seen in Europe,


RE:“似乎有点像是非限定性关系分句的先行词”

--- such显然不是关联词,所以我给你加上了[which were], 然后又删掉,表示这里的连接关系并非由such (as) 来担当。


这个such as局部的结构,跟这句话很有相通之处:

Cook was a strict but good captain, one who usually took care of the sailors on his ship.

one who = [who was] a captain who

such as=that或which可以引导定语从句,另外,such as=whath或whatever或those who等引导名词性从句,such as也常引出同位语。 第一个例句中,such as=which,修饰injuries 引出非限制性定语从句。第二个例句中,仅仅引出了同位语those,而those后又用了一个省略引导词that或which的定语从句。
