紧急求助新prep179，Unlike A, B--AB竟然可以不平行了吗！

179.
            (25535-!-item-!-188;#058&001589)

Unlike George in 1968 and John Anderson in 1980, both of whom running as independent candidates, H. Ross Perot's independent run for the presidency in 1992 arose not from an unsuccessful effort to gain a major party nomination but from a desire to establish a viable third party in American politics.

A. George in 1968 and John Anderson in 1980, both of whom running as independent candidates,

B. George in 1968 and John Anderson in 1980, each of whom ran as independent candidates,

C. George in 1968 and John Anderson in 1980, both of which ran as an independent candidate,

D. the independent candidates, George in 1968 and John Anderson in 1980,

E. the independent candidacies of George in 1968 and John Anderson in 1980,

觉得这题好晕菜啊，

我首先排除了ABC，因为unlike A, B中的B是H's run

然后看DE，D是the independent candidates，也不对

再看E，可能是因为看了D的缘故，很自然就把E看成了the independent candidates of G，觉得更加ridiculous，只好又回头看ABC，心想不会是unlike A, B现在也被GMAC默许可以不平行了吧。

然后随便选了个A。

答案是E。

我一细看E，才发现不是"candidates"，而是个什么鬼"candidacies"，真晕菜啊，有必要玩这种小把戏吗？然后查这个词，查不到，是什么意思啊？这个是可以和run平行的吗？

刚才又查了

查到一个Independent Candidacies , 是独立候选人的意思。

这个和independent run是同一个意思吗？

independent run到底是指一个行为动作，还是指一个人啊？

喔。如果是这样就CLEAR了。

many thanks!
