marry Anne Boleyn.
b and so could be married to
c to be married to
d so that he could marry
e in order that he would marry
Grammatical construction
This sentence uses the construction x happened so that y could happen; so introduces a clause of purpose
or result, explaining the reason for the action in the main clause. Henry ... sought to have his marriage ... annulled so that he could may Anne Boleyn. The relationship between the two clauses is clear.
A So as to marry is not idiomatically correct; it does not identify who will marr
B This alternative is ungrammatical and illogical: Henry could not marry simply on the basis of seeking an annulment
C The infinitive must be preceded by a conjunction
(in order); to marry is preferable to the wordier to he married to
D Correct. This sentence's construction clearly shows the reason that Henry sought an annulment.
E In order that is followed by may or might, the conditional would marry is incorrect .
The correct answer is D.

(B) creating a special nongovernment
organization that takes
(C) creating a special nongovernment
organization for taking
(D) and create a special nongovernment
organization for taking
(E) and create a special nongovernment

Parallelism + Grammatical construction
This sentence contains a list of three elements, all of which should be parallel. The last element should be preceded by the conjunction and. In this sentence, the last element must be made parallel to the previous two: (1) to revamp
computer security procedures, (2) institute new emergency response teams, and (3) create a special nongovernment organization to take charge of computer security planning. Omitting and causes
the reader to anticipate still another element in the series when there is none. Using the participle creating not only violates parallelism but also causes misreading since the participial phrase could modify the first part of the sentence. To does not need to be repeated with institute and create because it is understood.
A Creating is not parallel to to revamp and (to understood) institute, and is needed in this series
B Creating violates the parallelism of the previous two elements; and is needed in this series; since the organization does not yet exist, that takes is illogical
C Creating is not parallel to to revamp and (to understood) institute, and is needed in this series; to has the sense of in order to, but for taking is neither precise nor idiomatic
D In the construction create ... to take, the sense of to is in order to; for taking is not idiomatically correct
E Correct. The three elements in the series are parallel in this sentence, and the last is preceded by and.
The correct answer is E
想问一下to do 能不能做补语表目的呀,按36高亮处中应该是不可以呀
to do可以的作补语表目的的,36题里不是不定式错,而是不定式前面要加个in order,否则容易引起歧义吧,to be married to可以修饰sought也可以修饰annulled吧,总之不太清楚。
可能是这样吧
