Q13:
Like the grassy fields and old pastures that the upland sandpiper needs for feeding and nesting when it returns in May after wintering in the Argentine Pampas, the sandpipers vanishing in the northeastern United States is a result of residential and industrial development and of changes in farming practices.
A. the sandpipers vanishing in the northeastern United States is a result of residential and industrial development and of changes in
B. the bird itself is vanishing in the northeastern United States as a result of residential and industrial development and of changes in
C. that the birds themselves are vanishing in the northeastern United States is due to residential and industrial development and changes to
D. in the northeastern United States, sandpipers’ vanishing is due to residential and industrial development and to changes in
E. in the northeastern United States, the sandpipers’ vanishing, a result of residential and industrial development and changing
答案B,不知道itself 和it 是否可以指代不同的东西,在这里it应该指代的是sandpiper 吧
it和itself可以指代不同的东西,甚至有的说法说同一个代词相同的格(如句中的2个they)可以指代不同的对象,但是前提是能很清楚地指代这些对象,不至于引起歧义就可以。B中itself紧跟bird,指代很清楚,不会引起任何歧义。
我也认为it指代sandpiper.
請問這題後面的of changes in farming practices 這又是代表什麼意思呢?對整體的結構很不清楚
