In late 1997, the chambers inside the pyramid of the Pharaoh Menkaure at Giza were closed to visitors for cleaning and repair due to moisture exhaled by tourists, which raised its humidity to such levels so that salt from the stone was crystallizing and fungus was growing on the walls.
(A) due to moisture exhaled by tourists, which raised its humidity to such levels so that salt from the stone was crystallizing (B) due to moisture that tourists had exhaled, thereby raising its humidity to such levels that salt from the stone would crystallize (C) because tourists were exhaling moisture, which had raised the humidity within them to levels such that salt from the stone would crystallize (D) because of moisture that was exhaled by tourists raising the humidity within them to levels so high as to make the salt from the stone crystallize (E) because moisture exhaled by tourists had raised the humidity within them to such levels that salt from the stone was crystallizing
OG上写D的them回指tourists, E回指chambers D\E by tourists都介宾，为神马指代不一样啊？为神马？
(D) because of moisture that was exhaled by tourists raising the humidity within them to levels so high as to make the salt from the stone crystallize (E) because moisture exhaled by tourists had raised the humidity within them to such levels that salt from the stone was crystallizing 感觉还是句子结构的问题，OG这样说也有道理的 D里面--》that后面整个都是平级的结构，我们把定语从句提出了看，把定语从句的that换成所指代的moisture，读读看什么感觉：moisture was exhaled by tourists raising the humidity within them to levels so high ...
E里面--》我们把整个原因状语从句提出了，moisture exhaled by tourists had raised the humidity within them to such levels that salt from the stone was crystallizing exhaled by tourist是个分词定语，修饰成分划掉他 moisture had raised the humidity within them to such levels that salt from the stone was crystallizing 这样them就自然指代回主句中的chambers去了
由此感觉，代词回指肯定倾向于指代句子结构中同级别的成分，或者更高一级的成分
不太可能宾语的位置上出现一个them指代的是主语的定语从句里面的名词成分。作者: fdrandom 时间: 2011-9-7 11:59
D的主要问题是so high as to make the salt from the stone crystallize和最后的从句不平行
