Despite the criticism in the early 1890's that if journalists use pictures the intellectual quality of
publications would diminish, by the late 1890's photographs were found in most newspapers and
magazines.
A. that if journalists use pictures the intellectual quality of publications would diminish,
B. that if journalists use pictures it will diminish the intellectual quality of publications,
C. that the use of pictures by journalists would diminish the intellectual quality of publications,
D. of the intellectual quality of publications being diminished by the use of pictures by journalists,
E. of the use of pictures by journalists diminishing the intellectual quality of publications,

正确答案是C

我的疑问是A
解释说The phrase if journalists use is indirect, because the criticism is about the consequence of use,
not journalists. The verb tenses are problematic too because they are out of sequence: present
tense use with past tense found.
我觉得整个that后面的部分就是整个在解释criticism，所以journalists还是the use打头都没问题，但是解释中说要用use开头因为重点在于use of

然后我就搞不清楚了= =求帮助~~~~~

LZ ,A的时态不对，use应该用used

恩恩~就是说时态问题才是个大问题对吧~

这句话要关注的是criticize的内容到底强调什么~如果是if开头，可以强调主语journalists,也可以强调谓语use,所以解释才会说if开头indirect~~ 另外，个人觉得其实很多官方解释比其它解释都要好的地方就在于它对语义的整体把握，比如这道题，虽然时态也是split点，但是语义的把握可以更快更准确地选出正确答案~

同LS，criticism 针对的对象不同，句意也不一样。

有一个问题，by someone不是只能修饰动词不能修饰名词吗，为什么这里by journalists可以修饰the use of？
