. The endurance and consistency of baseball star Lou Gehrig, known as “The Iron Horse,” are legendary.
(A) The endurance and consistency of baseball star Lou Gehrig, known as “The Iron Horse,” are legendary.
(B) The endurance and consistency of Lou Gehrig, a baseball star know as “The Iron Horse,” is legendary.
(C) Known as “The Iron Horse,” the endurance and consistency of Lou Gehrig, the baseball star, is legendary.
(D) The reason baseball star Lou Gehrig is known as “The Iron Horse” is because of his legendary endurance and consistency.
(E) Known as “The Iron Horse,” baseball star Lou Gehrig’s endurance and consistency are legendary.

不明白这题为什么选A：KNOWN AS 修饰的不是前面句子的主语吗？那怎么能修饰endurance and consistency呢？同时也不清楚为什么endurance and consistency可以legendary修饰

请大家帮忙解答，谢谢了。

A中known as “The Iron Horse", 修饰的顺序可能先是前面的名词短语的中心词The endurance and consistency ，但是The endurance and consistency known as “The Iron Horse"明显没有意义，故known as “The Iron Horse,” 修饰前baseball star Lou Gehrig。

或者“, +形容词短语或过去分词短语”更多的是不考虑中心词，而是直接修饰前面名词。

C, E中Known as “The Iron Horse,” 开头，只能指向（强制指向)主语（也就是中心词The endurance and consistency ）

legendary修饰人或其附属物都可，very famous and admired/Extremely well known
