. As the price of gasoline rises, which makes substituting alcohol distilled from cereal grain attractive, the prices of bread and livestock feed are sure to increase.
(A) which makes substituting alcohol distilled from cereal grain attractive
(B) which makes substituting the distillation of alcohol from cereal grain attractive
(C) which makes distilling alcohol from cereal grain an attractive substitute
(D) making an attractive substitution of alcohol distilled from cereal grain（E）
(E) making alcohol distilled from cereal grain an attractive substitute
Choice A, B, and C are faulty because the pronoun which refers loosely to the whole clause rather than to some noun.
The original sentence is intended to say that alcohol is an attractive substitute for gasoline, but the understood phrase for gasoline cannot be inserted anywhere in A without producing an awkward construction.
Both B and C are illogically worded: the distillation of alcohol, not the alcohol itself, is substituted for gasoline in B, as the act of distilling alcohol is in C.
Choice D is unidiomatic and suggests that the rising rice of gasoline is what makes the substitution.
Choice E is the best for this question of middle difficulty.
大家没有问过，看了是老OG的上一道题，我明白应该是E ，但我疑惑的一点就是making这里若是做开始as 从句的伴随状语，但是后面有名词 the prices 难道不会引起修饰歧异吗
大全141同问，
需要管嘛？ 你看题目，A,B,C肯定一看就排除了，DE比较一下，D肯定不对，那就选E了。还有什么好折腾的？
making这里若是做开始as 从句的伴随状语
谁告诉你making是作as从句的伴随状语了？和AS有关系么？
那我是理解错了？
我想的是ABC中which的指代有问题，不能带整个句子，就是不能带as引导的这个，那么用making来做伴随状语表示price rise的结果，从而引起下面的句子，但是又想 下面开头就是price，这个不用引起说price是making的逻辑主语这么一说吗？
同问
从语法上来讲，这里的making即可以理解成as从句的结果状语，也可以理解成price主句主语的伴随状语。
但是从逻辑上来讲，make alcohol an substitue应该是price of gasoline rises导致的，而不可能是the prices of bread and livestock feed发出的making动作，故这里的逻辑修饰关系应该不会产生歧义
我觉得是这样的：
making做的是as句子的结果状语没有错，不可能是做price的前置状语（按照语法），因为逻辑上是说不通的。prices不是人，无法发出动作。

歧义并不排除“逻辑上讲不通”这一条啊！
我觉得现在分词放在两个句子中间就是可能造成歧义，不是一个好的结构
请NN费心解释！！

我不是牛牛：）
逻辑上讲不通是排除里面一个很重要的手段的，我觉得。
请指教！
那是不错的。可是逻辑错误一般是用来排除错误选项，而不是说：如果这样理解的话会有逻辑错误，所以我们不能这样理解，所以这个选项是没有歧义的。
不知道有没有说清楚偶的意思，待讨论：）
今天看到其他题目，忽然转过弯来了。
谢谢：）
仍然不解:
白勇讲分词引起前后修饰歧义这个问题时用的是这个例子:
| 大全162.Beatrix Potter, in her book illustrations, carefully coordinating them with her narratives, capitalized on her keen observation and love of the natural world. | |
| (A) Beatrix Potter, in her book illustrations, carefully coordinating them with her narratives, | |
| (B) In her book illustrations, carefully coordinating them with her narratives, Beatrix Potter | |
| (C) In her book illustrations, which she carefully coordinated with her narratives, Beatrix Potter | |
| (D) Carefully coordinated with her narratives, Beatrix Potter, in her book illustrations（C） | |
| (E) Beatrix Potter, in her book illustrations, carefully coordinated them with her narratives and | |
关于这题的大全注释是这样的:
162, sec14-08
A) coordinating them.首先会被认为修饰illustrations产生歧义。in her book illustrations位置不好，与主句的关系减弱。
B) coordinating them.首先会被认为修饰illustrations产生歧义。
C) best.
D) coordinated修饰Beatrix Potter逻辑关系错。
E) coordinated修饰Beatrix Potter/ illustrations都错。
此题b选项与大全141很象.不同的是162的b选项分词有向前,向后都是做定语而141分词向前做状语表伴随结果,向后修饰主语做定语.
既然illustration可以coordinating,否则就可以从逻辑上认为b对了.那么price当然也可以making....所以我觉得141用逻辑不通来排除e的修饰歧义是不合适的.
不知能否有nn讲一下.
另外我大胆猜测一下,141是og10之前的og题,og每次出新版本淘汰一些题可能本身就是出的有问题的.这在其他题目的讨论种是有的.而162是以前笔考题.是不是可信度更高些?
总之我认为og141的e选项种making的前后修饰歧义仍然存在
请指教
162. Beatrix Potter, in her book illustrations, carefully coordinating them with her narratives, capitalized on her keen observation and love of the natural world.
(A) Beatrix Potter, in her book illustrations, carefully coordinating them with her narratives,
(B) In her book illustrations, carefully coordinating them with her narratives, Beatrix Potter
(C) In her book illustrations, which she carefully coordinated with her narratives, Beatrix Potter
(D) Carefully coordinated with her narratives, Beatrix Potter, in her book illustrations（C）
(E) Beatrix Potter, in her book illustrations, carefully coordinated them with her narratives and
245. Unlike Schoenberg's twelve-tone system that
dominated the music of the postwar period, Bartok founded no school and left behind only a handful of disciples.
(A) Schoenberg's twelve-tone system that dominated
(B) Schoenberg and his twelve-tone system which dominated
(C) Schoenberg, whose twelve-tone system dominated
(D) the twelve-tone system of Schoenberg that
has dominated
(E) Schoenberg and the twelve-tone system,
dominating
C, the best answer, is the only choice that makes a logical comparison: Unlike Schoenberg, .. . Bartok. In A, B, and D, Bartok, a person, is compared either to Schoenberg's twelve-tone system or to Schoenberg and his twelve-tone system as a unit. Such comparisons are neither logically sound nor seman-tically parallel. Consequently, A and D illogically suggest that Schoenberg's twelve-tone system founded a school and left behind many disciples. Choice B suggests that Schoenberg and his twelve-tone system together accomplished these feats. In E, the comparison is illogical and the modification is ambiguous. Schoenberg and his system, as a unit, are not only compared to Bartok, an individual, but also credited with having formed a school. The verb phrase dominating ... is called a "squinting modifier" because it looks in both directions: given the structure of the sentence, it could be meant to modify either Schoenberg and the twelve-tone system or Bartok.
OG说E选项中的分词是一种斜眼修饰，也就是携隐妹妹说的夹心结构。
虽然大全141中其他错误比较明显，很容易选出E来。但做题时还是有很多犹豫。从目前的理解来看，应该是逻辑意思优先。不过还是希望有人出来解释一下这种结构会不会有歧意。
