Despite its covering the entire planet. Earth has a crust that is not seamless or stationary, rather it is fragmented into mobile semirigid plates.

A. Despite its covering the entire planet，Earth has a crust that is not seamless or stationary, rather it is
B.Despite the fact that it covers the entire planet, Earth's crust is neither seamless nor is it stationary, but is
C.Despite covering the entire planet, Earth's crust is neither seamless nor is it stationary, but rather
D.Although it covers the entire planet, Earth’s crust is neither seamless nor stationary, but rather
E.Although covering the entire planet, Earth has a crust that is not seamless or stationary, but
按照定义来说，pronoun的出现，就是为了指代之前出现过的名词（antecedent）。也就是说，代词的指代对象在句子中是出现在代词之前。不过，该题的正确选项是D选项。Although it covers the entire planet, 这里的it按句意来理解是指crust，那么问题来了，it可以指代自己身后的名词吗？句子改成Although Earth's crust covers the entire planet, it is……这样是不是更符合规范一些？

这题考的知识点一个是代词指代，一个是平行。
A中not, rather不平行，所以错；
B中同样不平行；
E中逻辑存在问题，ing逻辑主语应该是earth‘s crust, 在E中主语是earth，所以错。
CD相比明显D更平行。

貌似没听说代词指代代词一定要在先行词之后吧，代词的考点是单复数一致，先行词存在，指代清晰，逻辑意思正确。
