The first balloon passengers were a sheep, a duck, and a rooster that were ascended from Versailles, France, in a basket beneath a hot-air balloon in Septmber 1783.

(B) The first balloon passengers were a sheep, a duck,and a rooster that ascended

(C) A sheep, a duck,and a rooster were the first balloon passengers that ascended

(D) A sheep, a duck,and a rooster that were the first balloon passengers to ascend

(E) A sheep, a duck,and a rooster were the first balloon passengers ascending

the given answer is B, why???求教

ascend作‘上升’解释时是不及物动词，没有被动；而且A中的被动语态的施动者不明确。that从句修饰三个动物。

这道题目好像不太好，指代上缺乏逻辑性。

同意TopTerminator。

另外，从that从句中in a basket beneath a hot-air balloon in Septmber 1783.判断，that从句应该修饰a sheep, a duck,and a rooster。
