标题: GWD-TN-10-41 请教版主

In California, a lack of genetic variation in the Argentine ant has allowed the species to spread widely; due to their being so genetically similar to one another, the ants consider all their fellows to be a close relative and thus do not engage in the kind of fierce intercolony struggles that limits the spread of this species in its native Argentina.

A.    due to their being so genetically similar to one another, the ants consider all their fellows to be a close relative and thus do not engage in the kind of fierce intercolony struggles that limits

B.     due to its being so genetically similar the ant considers all its fellows to be a close relative and thus does not engage in the kind of fierce intercolony struggles that limit

C.     because it is so genetically similar, the ant considers all its fellows to be close relatives and thus does not engage in the kind of fierce intercolony struggles that limits

D.      because they are so genetically similar to one another, the ants consider all their fellows to be close relatives and thus do not engage in the kind of fierce intercolony struggles that limit

E.       because of being so genetically similar to one another, the ants consider all their fellows to be a close relative and thus do not engage in the kind of fierce intercolony struggles that limits

答案是C
1）请问the + 名词泛指一类事物时，谓语动词用单数还是复数？
2）请问为什么limit用了单数形式，它的主语是谁？
3）similar to one another是不是不简洁的表达?这种表达本身有语法错误吗？

谢谢！！！！

这个是争议题，我选D的...

请问为什么选D，如果看没有划线的部分，the spread of this species in its native Argentina，是不是划线部分也应该用的是单数的ant, 这样才保持一致，对么？

我觉得未划线的its指代this species,不过我GWD的这道题目跟lz的不一样，挺奇怪。

我当时也选的是D，只是印象中看就的PREP笔记时，记得说the+名词表示”一群人/种群“之类的情况，谓语要用复数。但是其他选项不是太冗，就是前后主谓不一致，所以选了D。
limit的的主语我觉得应该是struggles，所以是复数形式。
至于one another不知道这样表达够不够简洁，只是觉得除了D其他的选项主谓问题比较大，就只能选它了。

答案为D。C中struggles that limits是肯定不对的。

哦。这样啊。。谢谢

同意Ｄ

那个Ｃ最后部分明显主谓不一致嘛

The gyrfalcon, an Arctic bird of prey, has survived a close brush with extinction; its numbers are now five times greater than when the use of DDT was sharply restricted in the early 1970's.

这个用的是单数...

种群是不行的，prep笔记上的原话是“定冠词the+姓氏、朝代、部族名称等，表示一群人，是集合名词，谓语要求用复数。如the Smith为史密斯一家，the Shang表示商朝人等。”
