标题: [求助]GWD11－14

GWD-11-Q14:

The single-family house constructed by the Yana, a Native American people who lived in what is now northern California, was conical in shape, its framework of poles overlaid with slabs of bark, either cedar or pine, and banked with dirt to a height of three to four feet.

A. banked with dirt to a height of

B. banked with dirt as high as that of

C. banked them with dirt to a height of

was banked with dirt as high as

was banked with dirt as high as that of

版上有人讨论过，给的答案是D，但是我觉得D好像不行，its framework of poles overlaid with slabs of bark, either cedar or pine 是一个独立主格结构，应该放在最后，如果这样的话A是不是更好些？

I prefer A to D as well since the correct parallel should be overlaid with ... and banked with ...

'A' correctly expresses the idea that 'layer of dirt covered the first 3-4 feet'

'its framework overlaid and banked' is a clause, because there is no predicate--just two Past Participle. No 'was' should be inserted before 'banked'.
