标题: OG 15 90题
90. The results of the company’s cost-cutting measures are evident in its profits, which increased 5 percent during the first 3 months of this year after it fell over the last two years.
(A) which increased 5 percent during the first 3 months of this year after it fell
(B) which had increased 5 percent during the first 3 months of this year after it had fallen
(C) which have increased 5 percent during the first 3 months of this year after falling
(D) with a 5 percent increase during the first 3 months of this year after falling
(E) with a 5 percent increase during the first 3 months of this year after having falle
1.未划线部分的its指代company's，所以和它差不多的it就不能别的词了吗？曼哈顿上说一句话中一样的词要指代同一个名词，所以这里也是这样吗？
2.C中的during the first 3 months是使用现在完成时的标志吗？
3.after having fallen有什么问题？
求解答！

1. it 是单数，只能指代company ，同个句子中相同代词只能指代同一个东西。

2.either "increased" or "have increased" would make sense, depending on context. if the sentence is written immediately at the end of the third month of the year, then "have increased" is right. if it's written later, then "increased" makes more sense.

3. having fallen – unnecessarily passive verb tense。

太感谢了！！不过第三个问题having fallen不是被动吧？你的意思是不是说没有必要用这么复杂的完成时？

这个我也不是很明白，查了一些国外网站的，他们这么说，我也就是单单觉得复杂而已
