The hognose snake puts on an impressive bluff, hissing and rearing back, broadens the flesh behind its head the way a cobra does, feigning repeated strikes, but, having no dangerous fangs and no venom, eventually, if its pursuer is not cowed by the performance, will fall over and play dead.

many times as rare as这个表达不对吗?

broaden 与“hissing and rearing back”平行,而不是与puts on an impressive bluff平行,因为从意思上可以看出,后面这些动作都是这个impressive bluff的一部分。直到but, but后面的才是与puts平行的部分。

第一题里的表达当然不对了,本身就矛盾.many times表示"很多倍",as rare as不是"和...一样稀少"吗?

例如: i have many times money as much as you do.

      i have many times more money than you do.

第二题我也不明白,划线后边的平行机构能详细说说吗?感觉很乱。谢谢。

2楼的方法是逻辑意思来判断,属于比较高级的方法,但是俺就因为词汇较差,没有法子看懂句子的意思,但是还是有方法突破的......

试一下这样看,是否觉得句子很平衡:

The hognose snake puts on an impressive bluff, hissing and rearing back, broadening the flesh behind its head the way a cobra does and feigning repeated strikes, but it has no dangerous fangs and no venom, and  eventually, if its pursuer is not cowed by the performance, will fall over and play dead.

其它选项的结果不好在于:

AB项:broadens是与主句的谓动puts平衡,并列元素的最后一个必须有and引导以表示终结,但没有见到and的影子

D项:broadening ......and feigns看得出来也不对呵

E项:feigning是一系列分词的最后一个元素,见不到and,于是也排除啦

第一道题有疑问,谁说不能有 many times as rare as 这样的用法,难道as....as.....只能用来形容多吗

第一题错在Due to poaching and increased cultivation in their habitats不是researchers have determined 的原因,而是determine后的那个科学现象的原因

同。。我也是不明白句子意思。。

但是关于结构问题。。B. broadens the flesh behind its head the way a cobra does and feigns repeated strikes, but with no dangerous fangs and no venom  这里出现了and啊 后面是with伴随结构也不需要and 看不出错啊

to kluv:
 

不才谬论,给你添烦恼啦,真不好意思,是俺的疏忽,就厚颜的再讲讲B吧......将B代入原文,结果是:
 

The hognose snake puts on an impressive bluff, hissing and rearing back, broadens the flesh behind its head the way a cobra does and feigns repeated strikes, but with no dangerous fangs and no venom, eventually, if its pursuer is not cowed by the performance, will fall over and play dead.

看见问题了吗?结构是——主句“The hognose snake puts......strikes,”+插入成分“but with, eventually, ”+【if主从句】

大结构的主句和从句之间都是逗号,但是没有连接词,所以......

补充:如果象A. broadens the flesh behind its head the way a cobra does, feigning repeated strikes, but, having no dangerous fangs and no venom, 这样,“having no dangerous fangs and no venom,eventually,”视为插入成分,这时的“but”就可以视为大结构的主句和从句之间的连接词,不过A的问题你已经知道啦,就不说啦

不知道我的想法是否可以解决你的疑团?
