问一句OG的解释，THANKS~~

Unlike the United States, Japanese unions appear, reluctant to organize lower-paid workers.
(C) In Japan, unlike the United States, unions appear reluctant about organizing

C In Japan would have to be balanced by in the United States, but the preposition in cannot follow the preposition unlike; this construction is awkward and imprecise
我划线部分解释不懂啊，in 怎么follow unlike了呢？
如果我把C 的about organizing 改成 to organize，那么根据OG划线部分解释来看，是不是还不对？可这句解释是什么意思捏？

附上其它选项，虽然没什么用：
(A) Unlike the United States, Japanese unions appear reluctant to organize
(B) Unlike those in the United States, Japanese
unions appear reluctant to organize
(C) In Japan, unlike the United States, unions
appear reluctant about organizing
(D) Japanese unions, unlike the United States, appear reluctant to organize
(E) Japanese unions, unlike those in the United States, appear reluctant about organizing

我怎么觉得这个不是in和unlike的问题，是unions不能unlike 美国，而且改变原意了

哦，对哦，LS说的有道理，凭这个是把本题做出了，thanks so much~～～

不过还是再小纠结一下，C的那个解释部分还是remain question一下吧

thanks anyway

LZ的划线部分应与前未划线部分结合一起看：
In Japan would have to be balanced by in the United States, but the preposition in cannot follow the preposition unlike; this construction is awkward and imprecise
我的理解：(括号内自加帮助理解)
In Japan本应该与（虚拟语气假设情况）in the United States相对应的（balanced），然而（如果这样做了）介词in就不能跟在like后面.(like +n;as+句子).故排除。
前半句就阐明了这是一个假设情况(would have to)。

引申一下：
like/unlike经常置于句首，放句中容易产生歧义我们叫它“夹心饼”

Hope it helps!
