One of Ronald Reagan's first acts as President was to rescind President Carter's directive that any chemical banned on medical grounds in the United States be prohibited from sale to other countries.
(A) that any chemical banned on medical grounds in the United States be prohibited from sale to other countries
(B) that any chemical be prohibited from sale to other countries that was banned on medical grounds in the United States
(C) prohibiting the sale to other countries of any chemical banned on medical grounds in the United States
(D) prohibiting that any chemical banned on medical grounds in the United States is sold to other countries
(E) that any chemical banned in the United States on medical grounds is prohibited from being sold to other countries

答案C. 我的问题:

1.C中sale 和of any chemical banned...不觉得有点远了吗?of 离countries近,似乎有歧义.我记得OG上有题就是说of离修饰的成分太remote了...

2.directive后面就不可以用虚拟V原形了吗? 如A.  这是什么公理?

(D) prohibiting that any chemical banned on medical grounds in the United States is sold to other countries

what's wrong with D?

prohibit from doing, prohibit something.

不要用prohibit that.

is sold-已经卖了. 应用sell.
