og 11- 102

参考答案是c


    

og 解释是:Them cannot refer to book illustrations because the plural noun is the object of the preposition in.

有讨论认为是them 不能指代插入语的成分,

them到底是不指代介词宾语还是不指代插入语成分呢? 不知道大家认为怎样.

如果不指代介词宾语,GWD-8-Q32  d  就是错的.

同问,THEM的用法

首先,有就近指代原则。

即便跳跃指代 PRESENTATION,那么后面从句的意思是和PRESENTATION不匹配的,而是和CHALLENGES相对应。

并且,B中,CHALLENGE之一是销售量的下降,中心词应该为DECLINE,而不是SALES。
