- that the elephant, giving rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo, had been earning
- that there was an elephant giving rides to children at the Whipsnade zoo, and it earned

The best answer is A
OG 解释中说"in B, the structure of noted…that the elephant, giving rides…,had been earning falsely implies that the reader already knows about the elephant—that is, that the existenceof this particular elephant is not new information. "这怎么理解？是不是因为使用过去完成进行时态表达了reader already knows the elephant的意识？分词短语在此做后置定语有错吗?我感觉分词前如果没有逗号，用分词短语比用定语从句要简洁要好，对不对？
感觉在 GMAT中，只要定语从句紧跟在修饰的名词后，没有修饰对象不清楚的问题时，定语从句的使用总是优于其它结构。是这样吗？ |
