OG247


OG said D is wordy and unidiomatic. Could anybody explain it to me?



247. Faced with an estimated $2 billion budget gap, the city's mayor proposed a nearly 17 percent reduction in the amount allocated the previous year to maintain the city's major cultural institutions and to subsidize hundreds of local arts groups.




  1. proposed a nearly 17 percent reduction in the amount allocated the previous year to maintain the city's major cultural institutions and to subsidize



  2. proposed a reduction from the previous year of nearly 17 percent in the amount it was allocating to maintain the city's major cultural institutions and for subsidizing



  3. proposed to reduce, by nearly 17 percent, the amount from the previous year that was allocated for the maintenance of the city's major cultural institutions and to subsidize



  4. has proposed a reduction from the previous year of nearly 17 percent of the amount it was allocating for maintaining the city's major cultural institutions, and to subsidize



  5. was proposing that the amount they were allocating be reduced by nearly 17 percent from the previous year for maintaining the city's major cultural institutions and for the subsidization

as explained in OG, in D, there is no grammatical referent for 'it'. in addition, D violates parallelism (to maintain and to subsidize).

In C, the phrase proposed to reduce, by nearly 17 percent, the amount from the previous year that was allocated is unidiomatic and overly wordy.


og中说unidiomatic是指the amount from the previous year吗?还是有其他语法错误?

我觉得unidiomatic指的是reduce...from...,wordy指的是可以用adj形容的用了定语从句。


请大家指正。

我看到a项里的reduction, 就直接根据reduce(v.)>reduction(n.)把a排除了~~~~

这样的思路该怎么避免啊?
