14. GWD17-Q14:
Whereas lines of competition are clearly defined in the more established industries, in the Internet industry they are blurred and indistinct, as companies that compete one day may be partners the next.
A. Whereas lines of competition are clearly defined in the more established industries, in the Internet industry they are blurred and indistinct, as companies that compete
B. Although the lines of competition are clearly defined in industries that are more established, they are blurred and indistinct in the Internet industry, as competing companies
C. The lines of competition are clearly defined in the more established industries, unlike the Internet where they are blurred and indistinct, as companies that compete
D. Unlike more established industries, where the lines of competition are clearly defined, they are burred and indistinct in the Internet industry, as companies that compete
E. Unlike more established industries, with clearly defined lines of competition, those of the Internet industry are blurred and indistinct, as competing companies
A错在哪里了呢？
A沒錯
B的industries that are more established -->wordy
A的the more established industries-->concise
whereas表對比 ,A若沒有邏輯上的錯誤,則BCDE都要出現表對比的邏輯
B 的although有讓步之意,whereas對比強烈
in the Internet industry they are blurred and indistinct非严格平行对应Whereas lines of
但更主要的错误在于as后面应加完整句,而A非完整句
本题正确答案应为B
"competing companies" in B改變了原意? 没有吧!
as后面应加完整句,而A非完整句.
个人保留意见,见谅.
不明白你在说什么 A选项AS后面就是个完整句
as companies
that compete one day may be partners the next.
that compete one day 定语从句修饰 companies 主干是 companies maybe partner the next
whats wrong with it?
in the Internet industry they are blurred and indistinct非严格平行对应Whereas lines of
但更主要的错误在于as后面应加完整句,而A非完整句
本题正确答案应为B
A 中as后怎么会不是完整句子呢？
as companies （that compete one day） may be partners the next.

"Whereas" and "although" are both correct. We can't choose between A and B on the basis of these words.
The reference of the pronoun "they" is unambiguous in both A and B. It refers both logically and grammatically to the subject of the preceding clause "lines." We can't choose between A and B on the basis of this word either.
What makes B wrong is the phrase: "as competing companies one day may be partners the next." The separation of "competing" from "one day" confuses the intended meaning. In A, "companies that compete one day may be partners the next" is clear and logical.
