222. (GWD-1-Q34)
Although people in France consume fatty foods at a rate comparable to the United States, their death rat
from heart disease are far lower in France.
A.  people in France consume fatty foods at a rate comparable to the United States, their
B.  people in France and the United States consume fatty foods at about the same rate, the C.  fatty foods are consumed by people in France at a comparable rate to the United States's, their
D.  the rate of fatty foods consumed in France and the United States is about the same, the  
E.  the rate of people consuming fatty foods is about the same in France and the United States, the

语法笔记中说,C选项的Their指代People in France错误;被动的使用awkward;the United States's后面的省略无法还原,比较对象不明确
我想问下 为什么不能认为their就近指代unite state's 呢? 另外“the united states's 后面的省略无法还原,比较对象不明确”这句话是什么意思啊?

首先谁说指代一定要就近呢。。。如果指代the United States's,那么把省略补完整是the United States's fatty food还是the United States's people呢?这个不好说吧。。。。就算是按照句意可以判断是后者,语法的答案都是比出来的,他这个表达让读者在猜,就已经不如别的选项clear

bz正解,刚才查了下MANHATTAN
上面说是 Proximity The pronoun should normally refer to the CLOSEST eligible antecedent. 以前没注意ELIGIBLE这个词。

Also, the antecedent normally occurs earlier in the sentence. 原来一般先行词 不会理很近
