求助OG紫皮的59题~

59. Neanderthals had a vocal tract that resembled those of the apes and so were probably without language，a shortcoming that may explain why they were supplanted by our own species．

(A)  Neanderthals had a vocal tract that resembled those of the apes

(B)  Neanderthals had a vocal tract resembling an ape's

(C)  The vocal tracts of Neanderthals resembled an ape's

(D)  The Neanderthal's vocal tracts resembled the apes’

(E)  The vocal tracts of the Neanderthals resembled those of the apes

这句话是什么意思啊，我完全没读懂。。。请高人指教一下啊~~~大谢~~~尤其是 so were probably without language，a shortcoming that may explain why they were supplanted by our own species 我觉得没主语啊。。。是倒装吗？还原回来是怎么样的啊？？

谢谢

句意是N的嗓音像类人猿，这使得他们可能没有语言，这个缺陷可能能解释为什么他们被我们这个物种取代。这句话主语就是N，与so并列，后面a shortcoming是前面的同位语。原句不正确，a tract与those不合。c d e选项主语改变，与so不合。所以选B

我不是牛人，要是我说的不对，希望大牛指正~
