[求助]og11，请指教

11. Based on accounts of various ancient writers, scholars have painted a sketchy picture of the activities of an all-female cult that, perhaps as early as the sixth century B.C., worshipped a goddess known in Latin as Bona Dea, "the good goddess."

(A)  Based on accounts of various ancient writers

(B)  Basing it on various ancient writers' accounts

(C)  With accounts of various ancient writers used for a basis

(D)  By the accounts of various ancient writers they used

(E)   Using accounts of various ancient writers

In choice A, the introductory clause beginning Based on modifies scholars, the noun that immediately follows it:

这句话什么意思？是说如果用这种过去分词的方式，scholars后面应该加上一个That么？

Choice B is awkward and impre­cise in that the referent for the pronoun it is not immediately clear.

为什么不clear？

and in D By the accounts... they used is an unidiomatic and roundabout way of saying that scholars used me accounts.这个斜体字部分怎么unidiomatic and roundabout了？

还有就是 Using accounts of various ancient writers，这句话是怎么理解才确切？

BTW，我看了几十道og的sc题了，几乎有一半解释看不太懂，是不是因为我基础太差了，应该先看点别的？

楼主，你争取先把每题的解释看明白，在继续看，就好了。弄懂一道是一道。

这题整个就是说逻辑主语的问题。你说不懂的那句解释就是说状语的逻辑主语是主句主语 scholars。

the noun that immediately follows it中的that是引导定语从句修饰noun的，不是说要加一个noun.

现在就是很多题的解释就是看不懂。

the noun that immediately follows it，对于这句话我还是不懂他想说什么。based on是用来修饰scholars的，“名词立刻跟随”？谁立刻跟随了？

兄弟,看不懂的话就盯住一个一遍一遍的看.书读百遍其义自现.有时候可能你是一时卡住了.

这里翻译过来就是"the introductory clause beginning Based on 修饰了scholars,这个紧紧跟在based on从句后面的词"
