SC疑点

EUPHORIAzzc

Tom Bradley was mayor of Los Angeles from 1973 to 1993, an era when the city had transformed from a collection of suburban neighborhoods to the second-largest city in the United States.

• A
  
  an era when the city had transformed
  
  
• B
  
  an era during which the city was transformed
  
  
• C
  
  an era that transformed it
  
  
• D
  
  during which era the city transformed
  
  
• E
  
  during which the city was transformed
  
  
• 请问为什么必须加an era呢？我的想法如下：from 1973 to 1993是时间修饰，mayor of LA 是从属结构，which 修饰跳过时间，确定为 LA。

during which 中如果 which 修饰 LA的话句意很奇怪，during LA 是什么意思，during指”在某个时间段中“吧。
还有就是根据A（原句），后面的分句就是来形容 1973-1993 这个时间段的。ABC都是同位语，an era 做 from 1973 to 1993 的同位语； DE中 which要么指代 1993，要么指代LA，因为作为名词性从句，which 不能指代一个介词短语，只能指代一个名词，但这样句意就很奇怪了。

一点我的思路，要是哪里说的不对还请各路大佬指出。

首先原句中包含an era，所以对题意思的理解就要从A去理解。原句的意思大体是，BT是LA的市长在19xx-19xo这段时间里，这段时间就是该城市发生转型（的时间）。
你可以去掉an era看句子的意思是否还是原句的意思。

A
an era when the city had transformed-如果去掉an era句子就变成了：“Tom Bradley ....... from 1973 to 1993, when the city had transformed from a collection of suburban neighborhoods to the second-largest city in the United States.”，我记得Ron的视频有讲过when是一个非常尴尬的词，它有可能会让后面的东西变成一个条件，这个句子现在的样子就有了歧义--【当】城市发生转变的时候，TB是市长 ，那言下之意就有可能是城市没转变的话他就不是了。句意变的模糊不清。

B
an era during which the city was transformed， 去掉an era就是E啊，楼上讲了我就不啰嗦了。

C
an era that transformed it，去掉an era，句子变成：“Tom Bradley was mayor of Los Angeles from 1973 to 1993,  that transformed it from a collection of suburban neighborhoods to the second-largest city in the United States.” 句子意思发生了转变，抛开语法层面，在意思层面这句话变成了TB在那段时间里但当市长使得城市发生了转变-这并不是原句想要表达的意思。
