Marconi's conception of the radio was as a substitute for the telephone, a tool for private conversation; instead, it is precisely the opposite, a tool for communicating with a large, public audience.
A. Marconi's conception of the radio was as a substitute for the telephone, a tool for private conversation; instead, it is
B. Marconi conceived of the radio as a substitute for the telephone, a tool for private conversation, but which is
C. Marconi conceived of the radio as a tool for private conversation that could substitute for the telephone; instead, it has become
D. Marconi conceived of the radio to be a tool for private conversation, a substitute for the telephone, which has become
E. Marconi conceived of the radio to be a substitute for the telephone, a tool for private conversation, other than what it is,

这道题做几遍都做错了,有一点我很不理解
原句中a tool for private conversation 是telephone的同位语,因此私人对话应该是用来指telephone,而radio后面说了“相反”是和大范围的听众交流的,所以我一直理解这一题的意思是,M 承认广播是电话的替代品,电话是用于私人对话的,而广播是与大范围听众交流的。可是如果选C,就变成,广播是用于私人对话的,然而也是大范围交流的。。。理解起来就是已经改变了原句的意思啊。
不过其他选项也都有问题。所以每次选的时候,我都不知道该选哪个。。

still cited from OG 12: The main point of this sentence is to explain that while Marconi felt the radio would substitute
for the phone as an instrument of private communication, in fact it has become an instrument of mass communication. It is less wordy to use Marconi as the subject of the active verb conceived than to use the subject conception with the static verb was. The pronoun it positioned as the subject of the fi nal verb hasbecome refers back to radio. Versions of the sentence that use the relative pronoun which indicate that the telephone has become a mass medium.
