Giuseppe Alessi, a world-class chef whose life has been a search for the genuine and the delicious in Florentine cooking, is an accomplished scholar not only unearthing many of his recipes from medieval and Renaissance manuscripts but also a poet and philosopher who draws his inspiration from the idyllic frescoes of Etruscan tombs.
    A. not only unearthing many of his recipes from medieval and Renaissance manuscripts but also a poet and philosopher who draws
    B. unearthing many of his recipes both from medieval and Renaissance manuscripts, as well as a poet and a philosopher who draws
    C. who unearths many of his recipes from medieval and Renaissance manuscripts, as well as a poet and a philosopher who draws
    D. who unearths many of his recipes from medieval and Renaissance manuscripts, but also a poet and a philosopher drawing
    E. unearths many of his recipes from medieval and Renaissance manuscripts, a poet and philosopher drawing

Seems no answer is correct.

A: not only ..ing but also a poet ==> X
B: both from XX and (from) YY; "a poet and a philosopher" should be "a poet and philosopher" ==> X
C: "a poet and a philosopher" should be "a poet and philosopher" ==> X
D: "but also" is not preceded by "not only"; "a poet and a philosopher" should be "a poet and philosopher" ==> X
E: is an scholar unearths... this is a run-on sentence. ==> X

Any one has any idea? Thanks!

I think that C is fine.
If you simplify the sentence, it will look like:
Giuseppe Alessi is an accomplished scholar as well as a poet and a philosopher.

请问为什么是a poet and a philosopher？？？不应该是a poet and philosopher 吗？

请指教，谢谢！

再问

這題我覺得a poet and philosopher也可以.
大部份的情況下a [noun] and a [noun]和a [noun] and [noun]是沒有區別.

Of course, there are exceptions (as always):
Vivian finished a spahegetti and meat by herself. <--a spahegetti and meat是一道菜
Vivian finished a spahegetti and a meat by herself. <--a spahegetti不太對, 勉強可以interpreted為一條spahegetti和一個meatball.

這類的word choice留到最後才用來判斷answer.

I think that C is correct.

Giuseppe Alessi is an accomplished scholar( who unearths 定语从句) as well as a poet and a philosopher( who draws 定语从句)

原因：

1。平行对称，an accomplished scholar ，。。。。 a poet and a philosopher

两个定语从句对称.

2. who draws...前面修饰的名词要是单数。 a poet and philosophe 不能 agree ( who draws)。所以 who draws... 修饰 a philosophe。

我记得上学时学到这个知识点，形容人的头衔或评价的那种词都用a A and B，如果出现a A and a B是错误的。比如说，he is a painter and singer，不能说he is a painter and a singer。不知道这种理解是否正确？

上面AlienX斑斑举的例子好像不是我想说的这种情况。请再指教！谢谢！

a poet and philosophe 是单数，都是在说Giuseppe Alessi一个人，所以，可以用draws

umm...沒聽說過such "absolute" rule.

OG11#46. Long before it was fashionable to be an expatriate, Josephine Baker made Paris her home, and she remained in France during the Second World War as a performer and an intelligence agent for the Resistance.

我覺得*可能*有"形容人的头衔或评价的那种词都用a A and B"的*建議*, 可是不是一個absolute rule.

还是OG有说服力，谢谢AlienX
