标题: 855 sec-E- 10

没找到之前的讨论，自己问吧

In the 1950s, when the Chrysler Corporation sponsored a live television show about the assassination of Abraham Lincoln, it forbade the actors to mention Lincoln’s name or the name of the Ford Theater because it did not want to plug the competition.

(A) it forbade the actors to mention Lincoln’s name or the name of the Ford Theater because it

(B) they forbade the actors from mentioning Lincoln or the Ford Theater because they

(D) the actors were forbidden to mention Lincoln’s name or the name of the Ford Theater because they

(E) the actors were forbidden from mentioning Lincoln or the Ford Theater, since they

选A？没想明白，A中it不会指代不明吗？相对来讲我还是觉得D更好一点

D implies that the actors were forbidden to do X BECAUSE they (the actors themselves) did not want to do Y. This is logically unsound because "forbidden" is a passive action -- one does not forbid himself to do something because he does not want to plug the competition.

那A也有问题的吧，it指代什么呢？Chrysler Corporation 还是a live television show，还是the assassination of Abraham Lincoln呢，不能确定吧

The Chrysler Corporation is the subject here, and the logical meaning is pretty clear. Hence, there is no referent issue here.
