OG225 没有天理的平行啊!

225. Minnesota is the only one of the contiguous forty-eight states that still has a sizable wolf population. and where this predator remains the archenemy of cattle and sheep.

(A)  that still has a sizable wolf population, and where

(B)  that still has a sizable wolf population, where

(C)  that still has a sizable population of wolves, and where

(D)  where the population of wolves is still sizable;

(E)   where there is still a sizable population of wolves and where

In choices A and C, the construction that still has ..., and where modifies Minnesota with clauses that are not gram­matically parallel. In choice B, the omission of and illogically makes the where ... clause modify wolf population rather than Minnesota--that is, choice B says in effect that the wolf population is where the wolf remains the archenemy of cattle and sheep. Choice D is grammatically constructed, but it lacks a conjunction that establishes a logical relation between the clauses; since Minnesota as a grammatical subject is separated from the clause following the semicolon, the statement there need not even pertain to Minnesota. In E, the best choice, the parallel construction of where ... and where ... allows both clauses to modify Minnesota.

想不通AC怎么不平行了, 难道说定语从句和状语从句不可以平行吗?

平行是越对称越好,that和where形式上就不对称, 且that开头的定语从句的先行词在句中的成分和where开头的也不一样。

谢谢楼上两位的回答, 但是我觉得用that引导从句去修饰states也挺和逻辑的啊?

另外感觉有的时候用where, 有的时候用that, 版主可否讲解一下究竟怎么区别? 谢谢!

弱弱的问，定从，that或者where，可以跳跃修饰the only one么？定从跳跃修饰好像不大长见哦。
