（请教酒商题为什么以sell的形式判断呢？）OG 81

og81

81.   In an effort to reduce their inventories, Italian vintners have cut prices; their wines have been priced to sell, and they are.

(A) have been priced to sell, and they are

(B) are priced to sell, and they have

(C) are priced to sell, and they do

(D) are being priced to sell, and have

(E) had been priced to sell, and they have -----------C

Verb form

The first complete verb phrase is have been priced to sell. The second verb does not need to repeat the word sell because it is understood from the first use. However, the second verb must be correctly conjugated with the understood sell. They are sell is not correct; they do sell is correct.

A     They are would require selling to complete it, not sell

B      They have would require sold to complete it, not sell

D     Have would require sold to complete it, not sell; omitting the subject they means that the comma should be omitted as well

E      They have would require sold to complete it, not sell; the use of the past perfect had been priced distorts meaning

对于A）B）D) E) 的解释不是很理解。为什么OG的思路是比较补出的sell的形式判断呢？

谢谢~

这题我也同样迷惑。哪位大牛解释一下。
