OG11-22

The end of the eighteenth century saw the emergence of prize-stock breeding, with individual bulls and cows receiving awards, fetching unprecedented prices, and excited enormous interest whenever they were put on show.

(a) excited

(b) it excited

(c) exciting

(d) would excite

(e) it had excited

答案是c

但是我觉得bulls and cows were exciting enormous interest.不正确,

我的答案是a. bulls and cows excited enormous interest whenever they were put on show. 牛激发了极大的利润.

这题应该是选c，因为平行结构。至于exciting和excited根本上没有改变句子语态，表达的意思应该没变。
