我选e,首先排除有instead的。不通。后来想了一下，应该是这个原因：

原句明显前后有对比。对比应该尽量平行。如果用分号隔成两个独立的句子，应该分别结构平行。显然A, C不是。B结构不对，D没有转折词，体现不了对比。E是一句话，other than 前后对应，平行，所以D对。

E.Marconi conceived of the radio to be a substitute for the telephone, a tool for private conversation, other than what it is,

=====c好把，你看E，的other than what is it, 虽然说ETS喜欢用OTHER THAN，但是也不能闭着眼睛选把。other than what is it, 表明什么意思呢？而且还有个逗号，再说，a tool for private conversation,，这个a tool 有歧义，可以指 radio也可以指telephone啊。。。越看C对。。。。instand，是“然而”而且后面还用了has become 说明已经存在radio是接下来的情况，而不是前面的情况，句子间连贯哩。。。。

C中的that我觉得不对。直接接在conversation 后面就是指conversation 了。但是that 应该指tool。而且我认为后面的has become 时态不好。radio是大众交流工具。这是个事实。不是说radio以前是，而现在不是了。我认为用一般现在时好。E中就用了other than what it is. it 指中心词radio.

没有搜索到原来的讨论稿,请指教或者给我个联接,谢谢啦

Marconi’s conception of the radio was as a substitute for the telephone, a tool for private conversation; instead, it is precisely the opposite, a tool for communicating with a large, public audience.

Marconi’s conception of the radio was as a substitute for the telephone, a tool for private conversation; instead, it is [歧义，it指代conception or radio]
Marconi conceived of the radio as a substitute for the telephone, a tool for private conversation, but which is [but后句子不完整]
Marconi conceived of the radio as a tool for private conversation that could substitute for the telephone; instead, it has become [我的选项]
Marconi conceived of the radio to be a tool for private conversation, a substitute for the telephone, which has become [which有歧义，可以说radio取代telephone的私人通话的工具的地位，而telephone成为了大众传播的工具]
Marconi conceived of the radio to be a substitute for the telephone, a tool for private conversation, other than what it is, [what it is不好，没有还凑合。另，google了一下，只有conceive of ... as和conceive of ... being，so far没看到conceive of ... to be]

到底哪个是正确答案呀
