131. Although the term “psychopath” is popularly applied to an especially brutal criminal, in psychology it is someone who is apparently incapable of feeling compassion or the pangs of conscience.

(A) it is someone who is

(B) it is a person

(C) they are people who are

(D) it refers to someone who is

(E) it is in reference to people

“E ：To be correct, this construction needs a main verb such as used; the construction is used in reference to is awkward and much wordier than the single word refers; the plural people should be singular.”

不明白为什么要加used，不明白为什么一定要用singular...我觉得E选项没有错呀~in reference to很好，term指代一群人people也很好！

我觉得楼主的语感脱离了语法的源头活水。所以就会似是而非。正如你问的另外一题一样。in reference to 作为一种副词性的结构不能作为表语。而作为一种病症显然也不是说的一群人。正如不会说“心脏病是指一群人心口疼"

亲你可别吓唬我！！！！我还有几天就考试了你告诉我我脱离了什么活水！！呸呸呸！！！太不吉利了！！！
另，你咋知道in reference to是副词性结构呢？为啥就不是正常的介短呢?

晕了亲我最后一句不是反问是疑问！！！您是怎么知道它是副词性的？我也想一眼就看出来！

我又想了想，好像你的疑问是有道理的。它并不是不能作表语。
但是作表语会改变意思

To be correct, this construction needs a main verb such as used;
这个或许就是idioms吧。
in referance to在字典里面的意思是“关于”的意思：
PHRASE You use with reference to or in reference to in order to indicate what something relates to.
但refer的意思是：
If a word refers to a particular thing, situation, or idea, it describes it in some way.

the construction is used in reference to is awkward and much wordier than the single word refers;
当然是动词的形式concise过介词短语的形式啦。it refers就搞定了那么多个词要表达的意思

the plural people should be singular.
psychopath-someone psychopaths-people
