标题: 请教这个题 GWD
In Greek theology the supreme being was Esaugetu Emissee (Master of Breath), who dwelt in an upper realm **in which the sky was the floor, and who had the power to give and to take **away the breath of life.

A.in which the sky was the floor, and who had the power to give and to take
B.where the sky was the floor, having the power to give and to take
C.whose floor was the sky, and who has the power of giving and of taking
D.in which the sky was the floor, with the power of giving and taking
E.whose floor was the sky, having the power to give and take

虽说正确答案选了A，但我认为A 的 and之前如果没有逗号，此选项还对么？

yes，since who cannot be logically parallel with in which 。。。 but it wll make the sentence fatally unreadable（and a little bit grammatically incorrect）

you cannot have a modifier that just has a comma on only one side（a pair of comma is needed here to clarify）

ls，请问我还是不太懂为什么不加逗号就 unreadable了，是语法错了么？

我认为此处不加也可以的啊两个who 并列修饰 Esaugetu Emissee 不行么

第二个关于逗号的modifier。。。没问题
我看错了 sorry

unreadable是指hard to understand or process

像这种这么长的句子一般会在and前面放逗号方便读者更好的理解句子结构

你不用太纠结标点符号。gmat不考察
