Only seven people this century have been killed by the great white shark, the man-eater of the movies—less than those killed by bee stings.
我是这样想的,这道题关键不是后面两个修饰的成分并列与否的问题。the man-eater of the movies 可以理解为white sharps的同位语,后面的成分是用来修饰主句的状语结构(可以跳过插入语直接修饰)。之所以E选项不对,是因为当the ones出现在句中时,一定是指代前面提到的复数人或物,而这道题目中提到了两种复数:people和movies,因此就出现了指代不清的错误。
