2.In addition to her work on the Miocene hominid fossil record, Mary Leakey contributed to archaeology through her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and through her painstaking documentation of East African cave paintings.

   (A) Mary Leakey contributed to archaeology through her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and through her painstaking documentation of
   (B) Mary Leakey contributed to archaeology by her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and painstakingly documenting
   (C) Mary Leakey was a contributor to archaeology by discovering the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and with her painstaking documentation of

   (E) Mary Leakey's contributions to archaeology include her discovering the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and painstaking documentation of

A

我的疑惑点
1.指代问题第一句话里两句话里主句用 Mary Leakey或Mary Leakey's 区别在哪？是否都能指代到
2.第一句里的C选项问题在哪呀？ C 选项也工整呀，我有看manhattan，上面提到
in addition to +n 里的这个n (you can use it to add another example to a different noun in the sentense, such as the object of the verb or some other noun.)
那么第一句话里C中，her work可以和discovery平行呀  所以C从语法结构上讲应该是木有问题的吧  所以排除C是否是从句意上去区分呢？

Mary Leakey或Mary Leakey's 区别在哪？
说说语法吧。一个是主格，一个是所有格。用的代词不同、
其次Cwith用的有问题，仔细体会with在修饰什么。而include在修饰什么，intend meaning是围绕her work （blah blah blah）————Leakey's contributions （blah blah blah）
关于C你说对了，前面说的是her work、后面就跟着she怎么怎么。语法没错，逻辑很awkward~~~

嘿嘿第一个问题木有问清楚哒、
是否Mary Leakey 和Mary Leakey‘s 都能指代到her work.
就是比如看到前面的her work,语法上是否能判断后面主语用什么？这里是不是都可以

一个一个回答
1.在我看来ML不能指代her work~~~人怎么可以和work这个抽象事物对等。

2.但是要澄清的是in addition在这里不属于parallelism indicator~~而是一个adv~
所以你不能拿这个去做一个split 应用到所有的句子

这么理解，possessive is an adjective. 也就是说"Mary Leakey's contributions"这里面，"Mary Leakey's"是个形容词，形容contributions.这里根本不存在名词"Mary Leakey"。

而我们知道代词之所以叫做pronoun，就是pro-noun，指代noun. 事实上代词可以指代的有：noun, other pronoun, phrase，但特别不包括adj. (possessive pronoun除外)

那回到这道题，"In addition to her work ..."，当你读到这里的时候，就立刻想到——主语必然是某个女人，也就是后面的Mary Leakey. 所以D/E看到以"Mary Leakey's"打头，就别往下看，直接排除。

至于你说,E里面"her work"和"Mary Leakey's contributions"对应上，那我再换个角度解释为啥这里her不能对应"Mary Leakey's"。

The task has two parts. she has done the first part, and Mary has done the second.

这句话，尽管没有上下文，但我们可以100%确定，she一定不是Mary.
这里"and"就是连接两个平行结构
She has done the first part
Mary has done the second
Perfect parallelism! 但不能认为she就是Mary.

同理，你这个E选项：
In addition to her work ___, Mary Leakey's contributions bla bla.

her work
Mary Leakey's contribution
完美平行，但是从逻辑上，我们不能推导出her=Mary Leakey's。（参见上例，she != Mary)
所以D/E逻辑意思不对。

A里面，
In additional to her work ___, Mary Leakey contributed _____.
Her指代主语，非常明确。

谢谢旺财财啊~真的很用心。

但是如果M L's 指代不到 her 那第一道题D选项是个神马情况呀？
