GWD-8-Q39:

Whereas in mammals the tiny tubes that convey nutrients to bone cells are arrayed in parallel lines, in birds the tubes form a random pattern.

1. Whereas in mammals the tiny tubes that convey nutrients to bone cells are arrayed in parallel lines, in birds the tubes

2. Whereas the tiny tubes for the conveying of nutrients to bone cells are arrayed in mammals in parallel lines, birds have tubes that

3. Unlike mammals, where the tiny tubes for conveying nutrients to bone cells are arrayed in parallel lines, birds’ tubes

4. Unlike mammals, in whom the tiny tubes that convey nutrients to bone cells are arrayed in parallel lines, the tubes in birds

5. Unlike the tiny tubes that convey nutrients to bone cells, which in mammals are arrayed in parallel lines, in birds the tubes

答案是A，没什么问题，同学们，帮我分析一下E，为什么错啊？是不是意思distort了？which就近修饰了bone cells而不是tiny tubes了？

以下是引用mouve在2007-12-29 12:49:00的发言：
偶觉得一个明显得错误就是unlike比较得前后不对等.希望有人帮忙学习下~

Unlike the tiny tubes that convey nutrients to bone cells, which in mammals are arrayed in parallel lines, in birds the tubes

为什么不对等啊？前面是tiny tubes, 后面是the tubes，没问题啊~我觉得还是which的歧义，distort the original meaning

Whereas in mammals the tiny tubes that convey nutrients to bone cells are arrayed in parallel lines, in birds the tubes form a random pattern.

A.      Whereas in mammals the tiny tubes that convey nutrients to bone cells are arrayed in parallel lines, in birds the tubes

B.      Whereas the tiny tubes for the conveying of nutrients to bone cells are arrayed in mammals in parallel lines, birds have tubes that

C.     Unlike mammals, where the tiny tubes for conveying nutrients to bone cells are arrayed in parallel lines, birds’ tubes

D.     Unlike mammals, in whom the tiny tubes that convey nutrients to bone cells are arrayed in parallel lines, the tubes in birds

E.      Unlike the tiny tubes that convey nutrients to bone cells, which in mammals are arrayed in parallel lines, in birds the tubes

这题答案AE我不明白,E为什么错.首先UNLIKE的比较我觉得没有错,其次WHICH引导的非限定定语从句表示全部CELLS后面跟着IN MAMMALS起到限制作用,结构为 Unlike the tiny tubes ...cells, which...are arrayed in parallel lines, in birds the tubes...红色部分的句式很常见.

A Whereas作为连词句子本身没有语法错误,前后很对称,感觉Whereas表示比较很少见.

哪位帮助解决一下,谢谢,感激

E中that convey nutrients to bone cells和which in mammals are arrayed in parallel lines并列，并且中间还用了逗号来并列，应该是错误的吧，并且这样一改，明显改变了原句重心。

E改变了原句的意思

原来是说mammals the tiny tubes are arrayed in parallellines

根据就近修饰原则，E变成了 bone cells are arrayed in parallellines
