can, and has用法

However, our fascination with the latest, and our under-valuation of what has already become common, can, and has, led us in all sorts of wrong directions.

1)这里 can, and has这里的句子成分是插入语吗?其中的逗号是否可以去掉?可以的话,去掉和不去掉的区别是什么?

2)led形式这里不受can, and has影响吗?

someone/something can, and has, done sth. 这个句式在英语中确实是存在的。这其实是并列谓语的一种简略形式,以避免重复。这种句式等于 Sb/sth can do sth and has done sth. 为了避免重复实意动词和宾语,can后面的实意动词和宾语就蒙后省略了。例如,I can solve a complicated math problem within a few seconds and I have often solved a complicated math problem within a few seconds. 这个句子存在重复实意动词、宾语和状语。所以这个句子可以简略为:I can, and have often, solved a complicated math problem within a few seconds. 我可以并经常在数秒钟内解答一个复杂的数学题。COCA语料库就有不少类似的例句,如:

Too much can, and has gone terribly wrong.

Vice President Dan Quayle can, and has, used the little known cabinet-level council as a backdoor...

I can, and have, seriously listen to this song for hours on end.

Unions can, and have, overstepped their legitimate bounds.

I can, and have, played these games over and over.

If the budget situation changes in our favor we can, and have done, the opposite of what was just described.

Some European doctors are convinced they can, and have been using the supplements since the early 1980s to treat osteoarthritis.

这个句式中,can既可以表示能力,也可以表示理论上的可能性。虽然can have/has 共用的实意动词形式不同,实际中根据就近原则实意动词采用过去分词,与have/has 保持一致。can后接不带to的不定式为人皆共知,不必说出。该句式的意思为:主语不但可以/可能做某事,并且实际做了某事。

网友的句子应该是抄错了。以下句子才是正确的:

However, our fascination with the latest, and our undervaluation of what has already become common, has led us in all sorts of wrong directions.

然而,我们迷恋最新事物,同时低估已经变得普通的事物,把我们引向了错误的方向。

查:2019年江苏高考原题“阅读理解”,而不是网上转抄的。
