16．Declining values for farm equipment and land，the collateral against which farmers borrow to through the harvest season, is going to force many lenders to tighten or deny credit this spring．

(A)  the collateral against which farmers borrow to get through the harvest season，is

(B)  which farmers use as collateral to borrow against to get through the harvest season，is

(C)  the collateral which is borrowed against by farmers to get through the harvest season，is

(D)  which farmers use as collateral to borrow against to get through the harvest season，are

(E)  the collateral against which farmers borrow to get through the harvest season，are

The correct answer is E．

OG中说use as collateral to borrow against is redundant,其他XDJM的总结中也说use as collateral/borrow against语义重复。但是为什么E的the collateral against which farmers borrow就没有语义重复的问题，use as collateral to borrow against就重复了呢？

你这叫啥问题啊？

因为用use as语义重复 所以没用就不重复
