(C) modeled the face of the statue like his mother and the body like his wife

(D) made the face of the statue after his mother and the body after his wife（B）

(E) made the face of the statue look like his mother and the body look like his wife

liu4949, thanks!

But I have checked Longman Dictionary and cannot find such idiom...

Any one else has opinion?

就省略来说,名词属格的形式's后的内容需要重复前面已经出现过的词,如前面有mary's car,后面才可以写tom's

就like的用法来说,只能用来表示comparison,举例要用such as

以平行来说，that of n与前面的形式平行对称

当然,知道model after 很快就能知道答案了
