49. Many house builders offer rent-to-buy programs that
enable a family with insufficient savings for a
conventional down payment to be able to move into new
housing and to apply
part of the rent to a purchase later.(A) programs
that enable a family with insufficient savings for a conventional down
payment to be able to move into new housing and to apply (B) programs that enable a family with insufficient savings for a conventional down payment to move into new housing and to apply (C) programs; that enables a family with insufficient savings for a conventional down payment to move into new housing, to apply (D) programs, which enables a family with insufficient savings for a conventional down
payment to move into new housing, applying (E) programs,
which enable a family with insufficient savings for a conventional down
payment to be able to move into new housing, applying Rhetorical construction In a lengthy sentence consisting of many phrases, it is
essential to determine which phrases and words are necessary to the
sentence and which words may be eliminated because they are unnecessary
The relative pronoun that correctly refers to programs and introduces the subordinate clause; family is followed by two phrases that are clear and correct. To be able to move, however, is needlessly wordy, repeating the meaning of enable, and can be reduced to to move. This creates a parallel construction in which programs ... enable a family ... to move ... and to apply.
1。在这里说 that refers to programs;不是说that不可以指代复数词马，有点糊涂了。
2。in answer C, using a semicolon here causes that to refer too broadly to the entire previous clause rather than specifically to programs; 为什么that可以指大一句话的？
谢谢
