56. By choosing glass apartments towering a hundred feet over brownstone units designed for earlier generations, seemingly younger-than-ever moneyed professionals have embraced a modern design ethic that accentuated their luxury-laden lives.
A By choosing glass apartments towering a hundred feet over brownstone units designed for earlier generations, seemingly younger-than-ever moneyed professionals have embraced a modern design ethic that accentuated
B By choosing glass apartments towering a hundred feet over brownstone units designed for earlier generations, seeming younger-than-ever moneyed professionals have embraced a modern design ethic that accentuates
C In choosing glass apartments in hundred-foot towers instead of brownstone units designed for earlier generations, seemingly younger-than-ever moneyed professionals have embraced a modern design ethic that accentuates
D In choosing glass apartments in hundred-foot towers instead of brownstone units designed for earlier generations, seemingly younger-than-ever moneyed professionals have embraced a modern design ethic that accentuated
E In choosing glass apartments towering a hundred feet over brownstone units designed for earlier generations, seeming younger-than-ever moneyed professionals have embraced a modern design ethic, accentuating
The original sentence contains two problems. First, “towering a hundred feet over brownstone units” is unclear and implies the absurd meaning that the glass apartments are located directly over brownstone units in different buildings. Second, the verb "accentuated" should be in the present tense, since the earlier use of the present perfect tense ("have embraced") implies that the embracing is still happening, and therefore that the ethicaccentuatesthe lives in the general present. Incidentally, in this context, "by choosing" and "in choosing" have nearly identical meanings; as a result, this split is immaterial.
(A) Incorrect, as it repeats the original sentence.
(B) This choice repeats the errors from the choice (A) and adds another. The adjective “seeming” is incorrect, since adjectives modify nouns; it is not “seeming professionals,” but “seemingly younger... professionals.” An adverb must be used to describe an adjective.
(C) CORRECT.Using “in hundred-foot towers instead of” rather than “towering a hundred feet over” makes the intended meaning clearer. Also, the verb "accentuates" is in the proper tense (present).
(D) The verb "accentuated" should not be in the past tense, as noted above.
(E) In this choice, “towering a hundred feet over brownstone units” is unclear and implies the absurd meaning that the glass apartments are located directly over brownstone units in different buildings. The adjective “seeming” is incorrect, as noted earlier in choice B. An adverb must be used to describe an adjective. Finally, the participle "accentuating" should arguably be replaced with the relative clause "that accentuates"; following a comma, the participle implies that the professionals are doing the accentuating, rather than the design ethic. This change of meaning is inadvisable.

A By choosing glass apartments towering a hundred feet over brownstone units designed for earlier generations, seemingly younger-than-ever moneyed professionals have embraced a modern design ethic that accentuated -----choosing...towering a hundred ft over units,感觉很多情况下over这个词没有instead of明显存在比较的意思，容易产生歧义。that accentuated 肯定不对。 B By choosing glass apartments towering a hundred feet over brownstone units designed for earlier generations, seeming younger-than-ever moneyed professionals have embraced a modern design ethic that accentuates -------同A，然后adv修饰adj，seeming--〉seemingly
C In choosing glass apartments in hundred-foot towers instead of brownstone units designed for earlier generations, seemingly younger-than-ever moneyed professionals have embraced a modern design ethic that accentuates -------in stead of is better,但是这里的in choosing不是很清楚用法，求解释？？？
D In choosing glass apartments in hundred-foot towers instead of brownstone units designed for earlier generations, seemingly younger-than-ever moneyed professionals have embraced a modern design ethic that accentuated ------apartments in hundren-ft towers,这里的in用法不清楚，但是后面的accentuated肯定不对。
E In choosing glass apartments towering a hundred feet over brownstone units designed for earlier generations, seeming younger-than-ever moneyed professionals have embraced a modern design ethic, accentuating ------seeming 不对，但是accentuating感觉用法没错，在修饰前面的younger-than-ever moneyed professionals have embraced a modern design ethic一整个现象，不知道分析得对不对。

A By choosing glass apartments towering a hundred feet over brownstone units designed for earlier generations, seemingly younger-than-ever moneyed professionals have embraced a modern design ethic that accentuated -->accentuated 不对， towering a hundred feet 逻辑结构混乱。 B By choosing glass apartments towering a hundred feet over brownstone units designed for earlier generations, seeming younger-than-ever moneyed professionals have embraced a modern design ethic that accentuates -->seeming 是adj，修饰moneyed professionals 不合理。 C In choosing glass apartments in hundred-foot towers instead of brownstone units designed for earlier generations, seemingly younger-than-ever moneyed professionals have embraced a modern design ethic that accentuates--->原句是by，强调方式方法，用成In的话会不会有改变意思的嫌疑？同时觉得over 比 instead of 简洁. D In choosing glass apartments in hundred-foot towers instead of brownstone units designed for earlier generations, seemingly younger-than-ever moneyed professionals have embraced a modern design ethic that accentuated--->accentuated 不对.
E In choosing glass apartments towering a hundred feet over brownstone units designed for earlier generations, seeming younger-than-ever moneyed professionals have embraced a modern design ethic, accentuating--> towering a hundred feet 逻辑结构混乱. [上来一看就看的晕晕忽忽的没看懂，瞎选了一个A，然后看大家的回帖，发现漏洞还是很多的，C选项虽然有不尽如人意的地方，但是木有犯逻辑语法上的大错误，看来还需要继续学习进步啊啊啊。。。】作者: me_sheep 时间: 2011-11-24 11:15 56.

E In choosing glass apartments towering a hundred feet over brownstone units designed for earlier generations, seeming younger-than-ever moneyed professionals have embraced a modern design ethic, accentuating选C 灰色部分是觉得错误的地方。 Splits: A. a modern design ethic that应该是陈述一般事实 用一般现在时 排除 AD B. 应该用seemingly修饰moneyed 排除BE C. instead of vs. over instead of 比over的意思更清楚地表达代替 D. towering a hundred feet vs. in hundred-foot towers: in hundred-foot towers更清楚地修饰了apartments 我后来再想是不是towering a hundred feet over brownstone units有歧义 好像是有比units高 a hundred feet的意思
Above are just my two cents.
