85. Out of America's fascination with all things antique have grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that are bringing back the chaise lounge, the overstuffed sofa, and the claw-footed bathtub.

有点问题想请教,B的THAT先行词是,我们从逻辑上判断再根据主谓一致的原则,除了修饰market别无选择,我困惑的是这是一题改错题,看到先行词有两种修饰的可能,为什么不认为是错,如果这题可以解释的通,那就再请教运用到

(B) saw monkeys sleeping on the branches, whose arms and legs were hanging
(C) saw monkeys sleeping on the branches, with arms and legs hanging
(D) seen monkeys sleeping on the branches, with arms and legs hanging
seen monkeys sleeping on the branches, whose arms and legs have hung

85题的that不仅仅从逻辑上可以判断修饰market,更重要的是that后的is明确表明修饰对象为单数,所以,从语法角度可以确定market为唯一的修饰对象。
113题ETS的解释是:Choices A, B, and E awkwardly separate the relative clause beginning whose arms and legs ... from monkeys, the noun it modifies. 我的理解是虽然从逻辑上可以判断出whose的修饰对象,但是这种表达还是过于笨拙;其实,带有whose的选项都有其他致命的错误,而带with的D比之其他选项又表达清楚,所以优选D。
