请先做做看，答案在下面。
答案选 D
但一想到not only...but also, 就觉得D怎么能正确呢？ 难道but it also跟 not only...but also 不是一类的？
我用排除法选了B,但是B也确实对得不整齐。 Not only did the systematic clearing of forests do sth...but also did sth...
这道题感觉很confusing, 我担心下次遇到类似的题会找不着感觉，请大家帮帮忙解释下，感激不尽。。。作者: free_over 时间: 2010-3-1 15:22
首先B 的which 很明显的修饰farmland,但是句子很是说The systematic clearing of forests gave consumers relatively inexpensive houses and furniture （正确句子表达的意思一样）
其次 D中 的 but it also 不需要严格的追究一个结构 我觉得做语法的时候也不能太刻意的去套了 还是要理解意思吧 这里是 “也 ”的意思 不要太想复杂了作者: haoyushare 时间: 2010-3-1 15:52
有道理，同意。 我做过许多语法题，曾经见过好几道 逗号后的which不修饰逗号前名词的情况，尽管这种情况不多。 我也觉得做语法不能套，最重要的还是理解句子意思，比较不同的选项。 谢谢！
