请教OG 11th 116

116. Out of America's fascination with all thinqs antique have
            grown a market for byqone styles of furniture and fixtures
                that are bringing back the chaise lounge, the overstuffed
sofa, and the claw-footed bathtub.

(A)

things antique have grown a market for bygone

styles of furniture and fixtures that are bringing

(B)

things antique has grown a market for bygone

styles of furniture and fixtures that is bringing

(C)

things that are antiques has grown a market for

bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that bring

(D)

antique things have grown a market for bygone

styles of furniture and fixtures that are bringing

(E)

antique things has grown a market for bygone

styles of furniture and fixtures that bring

答案是

Agreement

This sentence uses an inverted word order that makes it difficult to see at first that a market is the subject of the sentence. The plural verb
                
have grown does not agree with market and so must be replaced with the singular has grown. Market is also the subject of the second verb, which should be is bringing, not are bringing. The present progressive verb
            
is bringing shows ongoing action, which is more appropriate than bring in this context. The plural nouns
                
(styles, fixtures) that appear between the subject and the verb are objects of prepositions.

A        Have grown and are bringing do not agree with the subject, a market

B        Correct. In this sentence, a market agrees with has grown and is bringing.

C        That are antiques is wordy and awkward; uses bring instead of the present progressive verb is bringing, bring does not agree with a market

D        A market agrees with neither have grown nor are bringing

E        Uses bring rather than the more appropriate present progressive
                
is bringing, bring does not agree with
                
a market

读完以后感觉很混乱,请问这个句子的正常语序是怎样的? that之前是不是省略了个and?

赞一个,

不过很困惑与 all things antique 这个能否是 all antique things呢?

我怎么觉得后面的看起来顺眼些?

我觉得 all things antique 更合适一些,这是因为things这个词的缘故。

举个例子吧,i wanna find something good in the process of preparing for GMAT.

something good 如果换成 good something 可能就不大合适了,我觉得。
