GWD 21-6

Heirloom tomatoes, grown from seeds saved from the previous year, only look less appetizing than their round and red supermarket cousins, often green and striped, or have plenty of bumps and bruises, but are more flavorful.

A.     cousins, often green and striped, or have plenty of bumps and bruises, but are

B.     cousins, often green and striped, or with plenty of bumps and bruises, although

C.     cousins, often green and striped, or they have plenty of bumps and bruises, although they are

D.     cousins; they are often green and striped, or with plenty of bumps and bruises, although (E)

E.      cousins; they are often green and striped, or have plenty of bumps and bruises, but they are

没有确定的答案，有帖子说选e, 但是不太明白e中，为什么but后面还要加上they.

请nn指教

up

E.    they are often green and striped,插入句, but they are

一个连词接两个句子。

好像ETS的标准是能省一定要省，不省就是wordy。

E里面的they 明显就是典型例子。

我选A

感谢5楼。

你说得非常有道理。

their round and red supermarket中their很明确指代Heirloom tomatoes，同意句子中的they一定指代Heirloom tomatoes。只是E过于繁琐了。但是D错在or后面要根句子而不是短语，再说with结构也不好。

请问楼主在哪里找到的GWD21??

隔了一段时间，今天再做这题，反而觉得a是对的。

因为cousins前面有round and red作为修饰，所以从逻辑上讲often green and striped,只能修饰主语Heirloom tomatoes，没有歧义。后面的 but are也把they去掉了，觉得比e好。

如果说歧义，严格意义上讲的话，e的they也有可能指代counsins啊！主要是我弄不明白，最后but they are的they为什么要保留，反而觉得a去掉they更好
