14. GWD27-Q14:

The quality of early pieces of blown glass excavated in Italy and Western Europe by far surpass those of pieces from the eastern Mediterranean, when regarded not only in terms of the variety of shapes represented, but also in terms of decorative techniques and functionality.

A.      by far surpass those of pieces from the eastern Mediterranean, when regarded not only in terms of

B.       surpasses by far those from the eastern Mediterranean, with regard not only to

C.      far surpass that of pieces from the eastern Mediterranean, not only regarding

D.      far surpasses that of the eastern Mediterranean, with regard to not only

E.       far surpasses that of pieces from the eastern Mediterranean, not only with regard to

正确答案为E，为什么是E啊？not only....but also....不对称啊……请解释，我感觉A比较对称……谢谢

主语是quality，单数排除ab，其次是glass碎片质量的比较，所以e对称，别的不行。not only的对称不能单看短语形式啊，意思对最重要了，并没有不对称

请问“主语是quality，单数排除ab”，排除B是笔误吗？因为B中用的是surpasses呀，不应该有要"单数排除"的意思呀~
