According to two teams of paleontologists, recent fossil discoveries in Pakistan show that whales, porpoises, and dolphins are more closely related to some of the oldest known even-toed ungulates--a group of hoofed mammals that today includes cows, camels, pigs, and hippos--than to any other mammals.

According to two teams of paleontologists, recent fossil discoveries in Pakistan show that whales, porpoises, and dolphins are more closely related to some of the oldest known even-toed ungulates--a group of hoofed mammals that today includes cows, camels, pigs, and hippos--than to any other mammals.                                    
The list of animals that exhibits a preference of either using the right or the left hand (i.e., claw, paw, or foot) has been expanded to include the lower vertebrates.                                    
  • Aexhibits a preference of either using the right or the left hand (i.e., claw, paw, or foot) has been expanded to include
  • Bexhibits the preference to use either the right or the left hand (i.e., claw, paw, or foot) has been expanded and includes
  • Cexhibit a preference in either using the right or the left hand (i.e., claw, paw, or foot) has been expanded to include  
  • Dexhibit a preference for using either the right or the left hand (i.e., claw, paw, or foot) has been expanded to include  
  • Eexhibit the preference as to either using the right or the left hand (i.e., claw, paw, or foot) has been expanded and includes  
答案是D that指代的是animals  

所以个人理解 that指代的是谁应该根据逻辑意思。第一道题 mammal包括的动物应该是很多,这里的include应该是特指even-toed ungulates 这a  group of 哺乳动物,而不是指mammal 有哪一些。所以that 应该是修饰 a group of
第一道题 只有动物能够exhibit preference,所以主语一定是animals 而不是 list

Hi, Luna

that一般是就近指代,但是楼主举的两个栗子都是A of B 结构,所以到底是指代A,还是B,看指代的内容,也就是楼主说的逻辑。
