正确答案是B。为什么里面的“also” 使用正确呢？influenced 和 insipired 不是并列关系啊，用also不会造成误解吗

I know one should never question the correct answer, but I am just wondering, in (B) why there is an 'also' before 'inspired' (I know every answer has it so my question might be irrelevant,but..) If you drop the modifier, the sentence reads like "Blueegrass Musician Bill Monroe also inspired many musicians...". Doesn't it make you wonder who else insipired musicians or what else did he do?

Please ignore if this is a waste of your time.

Thanks!

i don't understand what you are asking here.
the other things that monroe did are in the modifier... so, if you "drop the modifier", then also doesn't make sense anymore.
...but the modifier is there, so it's fine.

here's a simpler version:
Ron, one of the most prolific posters on the MGMAT forum, is also a GMAT course instructor.
--> again, if you were to remove the modifier, you would also have to remove "also".

这里also应该更注重语意上的“也”吧，并不只是平行结构才能用also

Redundant吧，用了太多名词形式，that included听起来也很奇怪

另一个角度，also 根据Cambridge Dictionary，不像FANBOYS一样是conjunction,而是一个adverb
