Unidentified illnesses in northwestern Congo have killed more than 50 people over the past five weeks, nearly half of them within hours after they felt sick.
这句话的nearly half of them后面是不是省略了dying现在分词?这是什么省略?这句话nearly half of.....是独立主格?还是补充成分?
Unidentified illnesses in northwestern Congo have killed more than 50 people over the past five weeks, (and省略)nearly half of them (died)within hours after they felt sick.
参考译文:刚果西北部地区出现的不明疾病已导致50多人死亡,他们中的近一半患者在感到不适后数小时内死亡。
备注(1):them指代more than 50 people
备注(2):nearly half of them (died) within hours为主句
备注(3): after they felt sick.为时间状语从句
