OG数题请教,谢谢。

一、OG第154题:
154. In 1791 Robert Carter III, one of the wealthiest plantation owners in Virginia, stunned his family, friends, and neighbors by filing a deed of emancipation, setting free the more than 500 slaves who were legally considered his property.
A.    setting free the more than 500 slaves who were legally considered
B.    setting free more than the 500 slaves legally considered as
C.    and set free more than 500 slaves, who were legally considered as
D.    and set free more than the 500 slaves who were legally considered
E.    and he set free the more than 500 slaves who were legally considered as
解释说In choices B and D the misconstructed phrases set[ting] free more than the 500 slaves ... mistakenly suggest that Carter set free slaves that were not his own.
我不明白怎么能给人误解成不是自己的奴隶,尤其是A和B,单看前面的结构,the 的位置不同,怎样造成的意思不同?能不能请大侠们分别解释一下A和B的意思,或者单解释B的意思也成了。:)
另外,和这道题类似的还有一道
176. As a result of the ground-breaking work of Barbara McClintock, many scientists now believe that all of the information encoded in 50,000 to 100,000 of the different genes found in a human cell are contained in merely three percent of the cell's DNA.
A.    50,000 to 100,000 of the different genes found in a human cell are contained in merely
B.    50,000 to 100,000 of the human cell's different genes are contained in a mere
C.    the 50,000 to 100,000 different genes found in human cells are contained in merely
D.    50,000 to 100,000 of human cells' different genes is contained in merely
E.    the 50,000 to 100,000 different genes found in a human cell is contained in a mere
也是the 修饰的位置问题,答案为E,虽然答案选出不需要用到the的位置问题,但希望牛牛们帮我解释一下拉,the 50,000 to 100,000 different genes found in……..和50,000 to 100,000 of the different genes found in。。。。。。的区别,谢谢先。

二、两个完整的句子用and或者but,yet等连接,是否需要用逗号将两个句子分开,也就是A, and B.其中A和B都是句子?这是我在做179题是解释中看到的,是不是这样?我以前觉得并列的两个东西,不管是句子还是短语还是单词,只要用and链接了就可以直接放在一起,不需要用逗号隔开,请指教。
179. During the early years of European settlement on a continent that was viewed as "wilderness" by the newcomers, Native Americans, intimately knowing the ecology of the land, were a help in the rescuing of many Pilgrims and pioneers from hardship, or even death.
A.    Native Americans, intimately knowing the ecology of the land, were a help in the rescuing of
B.    Native Americans knew the ecology and the land intimately and this enabled them to help in the rescue of
C.    Native Americans, with their intimate knowledge of the ecology of the land, helped to rescue
D.    having intimate knowledge of the ecology of the land, Native Americans helped the rescue of
E.    knowing intimately the ecology of the land, Native Americans helped to rescue
B creates an awkward, redundant, fused sentence in which the first clause has to be repeated in the vague this of the second clause; furthermore, the comma required before and in larger compound sentences is omitted.

三、弱问题啊,请问这个对于E的解释是什么意思啊,哪位大侠给俺翻译一下吧,偶就选的E啊,呜呜。。。。。
181. Because of the enormous research and development expenditures required to survive in the electronics industry, an industry marked by rapid innovation and volatile demand, such firms tend to be very large.
A.    to survive
B.    of firms to survive
C.    for surviving
D.    for survival
E.    for firms' survival
In choice E, the illogical and awkward use of a prepositional phrase (for firms' survival) buries the needed initial reference to firms in a possessive modifier.

154. 你可以这么看: the.....slaves who who were legally considered, 也就是在whO引导的定语从句修饰the范围内的数字概念.
A)释放了他自己的超过500人数的奴隶.
B)不仅释放了自己500个奴隶,还释放了其它的奴隶(超过500的那部分不属于他).

the 在 5000之前表示人类发现的gene有5000-10000个,
没the 表示细胞里就有5000-10000个genes,都被人发现了.

二, 建议你看elements of style或者其他的语法书.

三. 其实本题考required of sb. to do sth.这个用法。
OG解释的意思可能是: e 选项使用了错误的's 形式, 抛弃了用 所有格修饰词(即of)指代firms的要求.

2. if you use "and" to connect two complete sentence, one comma is required to be put before "and".. that is a rule..
