635. Several recent studies suggest that a child born into a family whose members have allergies will probably themselves develop allergies following the onset of a minor viral infection. (A) a child born into a family whose members have allergies will probably themselves develop allergies (B) children born into families whose members have allergies will probably themselves develop allergies (C) a child born into a family the members of which have allergies will probably develop an allergy (D) in those families where members have allergies, children will probably develop allergies themselves (E) children born into a family in which there are allergies will themselves probably develop an allergy 正确答案为（B),我选择的是（C)。为何b中使用themselves，(C)这样表述有什么问题吗？
C中的定语从句中的关系代词有问题,应该改为: the members of whom, "which"用来修饰人,这是ETS的大忌! B中用themselves是为了更进一步消除几个名词复数children, families和members的指代歧异, 用一个反身代词直接指向that 从句主语children

偶觉得C中的这种用法a family the members of which have 在family 和 the members 之间要加“，”。因为这是一种非限定性修饰，从a family泛指中可以推出。
