To maintain a high demand for their product, the manufacturers first took over the marketing and sales functions previously performed by outside agents; next, they began changing their advertising campaigns monthly to keep pace with the rapid changes in consumers’ lives.
(A) they began changing
(B) this began changing
(C) the former began changing
(D) to begin changing
(E) to change

答案是A，可是这里的they不会指代不清么？前面提到的复数名词有两个，manufacturers和agents
我选的是C

请各位大牛指教，拜谢~

不会的。LZ注意前后未划线部分有提示，前面their products和后面their advertising campaigns中的their只能指代manufacturers,所以划线部分的they就不会出现歧义咯。

按WB上的例句，the former 使用在并列关系上的，但是manufacturers和agents并非这样的关系，所以这个选项在句意上是不符合的~
