OG:101. Heavy commitment by an executive to a course of
action, especially if it has worked well in the past,
makes it likely to miss signs of incipient trouble or
misinterpret them when they do appear.
(A) Heavy commitment by an executive to a course
of action, especially if it has worked well in the
past, makes it likely to miss signs of incipient
trouble or misinterpret them when they do
appear.
(B) An executive who is heavily committed to a
course of action, especially one that worked well
in the past, makes missing signs of incipient
trouble or misinterpreting ones likely when they
do appear.
(C) An executive who is heavily committed to a
course of action is likely to miss or misinterpret
signs of incipient trouble when they do appear,
especially if it has worked well in the past.
(D) Executives’ being heavily committed to a course
of action, especially if it has worked well in the
past, makes them likely to miss signs of incipient
trouble or misinterpreting them when they do
appear.
(E) Being heavily committed to a course of action,
especially one that has worked well in the past,
is likely to make an executive miss signs of
incipient trouble or misinterpret them when they
do appear.
Rhetorical construction; Logical predication
Th is sentence explains that an executive who is
blindly committed to a proven course of action is
likely to overlook or misinterpret indicators that
the plan may no longer be working. Th e sentence
needs to make clear who may misinterpret these
indicators.
A Th e passive construction causes the sentence
to be wordy and confusing; the reference for
it is ambiguous, leaving the reader with
questions about who or what is likely to miss
these signs.
B Th e sentence structure indicates that the
executive, not his or her strategy, causes signs
to be overlooked; the modifi er when they do
appear is misplaced.
C Th e reference for the pronoun it is unclear
because many nouns have intervened
between the appearance of the logical
referent (course of action) and it.
answer is E.
C选项中OG的解释就是说it指代不清，但不是说代词就近指代么，题中在it之前的n有，signs of incipient trouble，a course of action， A of B 这种结构中代词不是只能指代A么？这样的话由于signs 是复数形式，所以it只能指代a course of action啊！！怎么会存在指代不清呢？
a site in Utah has yielded fossils of some of the biggest armored dinosaurs ever found, and that they were at least 25 million years older than any similar dinosaur type previously found in North America.
这里的they指代谁?是fossils吧？

大家讨论讨论呗~~~

LZ概念有错误，A of B 如果of表从属关系，只是说重心在A, 但是定语从句which，that有就近指代原则，看下面句子

1，The commission proposed that funding for development of the park, which could be open to the public early next year, be obtained through a local bond issue.

which就指代A of B中的B啊，所以看C选项，it其实可以指代trouble， action，所以句意逻辑不清；而且此句话把原句意思改变。

C) An executive who is heavily committed to a
course of action is likely to miss or misinterpret
signs of incipient trouble when they do appear,
especially if it has worked well in the past.

能不能麻烦楼上把句意也翻译一下，我一直不是很理解 be commited to、a course of要怎么翻译~
谢谢啦！

那就是说it， which，that都是既可以指代A又可以指代 B？

我觉得是
which that 引导从句的时候一搬原则是就近指代，但是遇到介词短语，插入语的时候也可以跳跃指代。没有一定，需要根据句子的意思来判断。

楼主的句子
“a site in Utah has yielded fossils of some of the biggest armored dinosaurs ever found, and that they were at least 25 million years older than any similar dinosaur type previously found in North America.
这里的they指代谁?是fossils吧？”
我觉得要判断they指代谁，是不是应该看than后面比较的对象，对象是说 any similar dinosaur type.所以than前面也应该是dinosaur，所以应该指代的是of后面的the biggest armored dinosaurs吧。。。如果句子想要指代fossils，那么than后面的应该是those of any similar dinosaur。。。用those指代fossils。
我个人的理解。。求指导。
