27.In 1929 relatively small declines in the market ruined many speculators having bought on margin; they had to sell, and their selling pushed other investors to the brink.
(A) speculators having bought on margin; they had to sell, and
(B) speculators who had bought on margin; having had to sell,
(C) speculators who had bought on margin; they had to sell, and
(D) speculators, those who had bought on margin; these speculators had to sell, and
(E) speculators, who, having bought on margin and having to sell,
D选项我觉得用了these speculators更好，不选它只是因为C选项的they指代无歧义而且更简洁吗？

C选项的they确实指代无歧义而且更简洁，they在逻辑上不能说指代declines吧？
D选项罗嗦啊。
本来
speculators who had bought
就可以表达的，它非得在中间插入
, those

斗胆质疑大牛牛。

they为什么就不能有歧义，语法指代优先为small declines，逻辑指代为many speculators，因为两者出现矛盾，所以才说they指代不清晰的，所以，错，不是吗？要不然，按照牛牛的理论，就不会出现指代不清晰了。昏~~~~~

我到现在都还没弄清楚补充题到底是什么题目？是老版og吗？还是真题？

所以我认为c\d都不对，既然不是新版og上的，我就质疑~~~~~~等着臭鸡蛋~~~~~无知者无畏~~~~

俺愚钝,请问我爱宝宝: 语法书上有说上句的主语优先指代的吗?我查语法书没找着,不过我的语法书太低级.一直以来我理解的指代不明,是指所有可能的先行词都和被指代者有逻辑关系,都说的通, 所以我认为这里的they没有歧义.

还请多指教,我学og愈来愈糊涂了

我个人认为，会不会D选项中的these和those用的不对呢？

(D) speculators, those who had bought on margin; these speculators had to sell, and
如果前面已经用了those（远指），后面再用these（近指）是不是就不大好。

对于C,我也是抱着怀疑的态度.OG中如果有前后两个分句，往往都是代词优先指代同等功能词，即若they做主语则指代另一分句中的主语。所以，they指代delines的歧义还是存在的。
