标题: SC 大全 703诚心求教
703.    The British sociologist and activist Barbara Wootton once noted as a humorous example of income maldistribution that the elephant that gave rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo was earning annually exactly what she then earned as director of adult education for London.
(A) that the elephant that gave rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo was earning
(B) that the elephant, giving rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo, had been earning
(C) that there was an elephant giving rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo, and it earned
(D) the elephant that gave rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo and was earning
(E) the elephant giving rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo and that it earned


选A

弱弱的说我是在A和B之间迷惑的,其实我很不懂这个句子的句意啊。。。。为什么B中用过去完成时就会产生歧义呢?求大牛解释,

这种夹心装经常会发生错误
你想想中间的现在分词既可以修饰前面,也可以修饰后面,会造成句意的紊乱

可是我看到B中的then就觉得  had done 是可以的。。。因为觉得它这个动作发生在 earned as director of adult education for London之前

时态应该是相同的,才符合逻辑意思。作者的意思是说大象和他赚的一样多,一种幽默的举例。逻辑意思上讲,也是同时的INCOME比较才有效果。而且如二楼说的,the elephant, giving rides to....感觉比较奇怪

我一开始也纠结在A,B选项,后来觉得吧,这个大象赚的钱和她赚的钱是一个表达收入分配不均的例子,收入分配不均肯定是同时发生的两件事比较,所以时态要保持一致,后面是过去时(earned),前面也应该是过去时,就把B排除了。
