手蒙住答案看了会,我选的是E,我是在DvsE中二选一的

个人认为后面的long-overdue…… 在原文的意思是修饰“50年之后才颁发给african american……”(类似于这些表彰来的太迟了)

选D的话,变成修饰了那个奖章了...

我不是高手,大家讨论,期待楼下的继续补充

E 正确

in recognition of 是固定用法,原文再在recognition前加了一个定语long overdue,表明这种recognition来迟了

原题本来是soldiers were awarded xxx honor in recognition of their outstanding bravery. 然后在recognition前加了一个定语,同时在xxx honor和in recognition之间加了一个the nation's...作为同位语,修饰那个xxx honor
