11. There are several ways to build solid walls using just mud or clay , but the most extensively usedmethod has been the forming of bricks out of mud or clay ,and , after some preliminary air drying or sun drying ,they are laid in the wall in mud mortar.
(A) the forming of bricks out of mud or clay,and , after some preliminary air drying or sun drying , they are laid
(B) forming the mud or clay into bricks , and , after some preliminary air drying or sun drying , to lay them
(C) having bricks formed from mud or clay , and, after some preliminary air drying or sun drying , they were laid
(D) to form the mud or clay into bricks , and , after some preliminary air drying or sun drying , to lay them

他的解释里说: Th e clearest , most effi cient way to accomplish these two pieces of business is to use a parallel structure. The ways to build in the fi rst clause is narrowed to the single way to form and to lay in the second clause. 为什么会由ways to build 来想到带出平行结构呢,我感觉都没有什么征兆啊,求教各位大牛了!!!
既然牛牛们都不肯回答,让我新人来说吧,,不是ways to build带出平行结构啊,OG解释里也说了,“most effi cient way to accomplish these two pieces of business is to use a parallel structure”,表明way to...和method to...是平行结构,and连接的前后也用平行结构。这句话的翻译如下“ 用泥和土建造坚实围墙的方式有许多种,但最被广泛采用的是先将泥土做成砖块,在初步的风干与晒干之后将它们在土臼中堆砌起来。”希望对LZ有用。
