Rivaling the pyramids of Egypt or even the ancient cities of the Maya as an achievement, the army of terra-cotta warriors created to protect Qin Shi Huang, China's first emperor, in his afterlife is more than 2.000 years old and took 700.000 artisans more than 36 years to complete.
(A) the army of terra-cotta warriors created to protect Qin Shi Huang, China's first emperor, in his afterlife is more than 2,000 years old and took 700,000 artisans more than 36 years to complete
(B) Qin Shi Huang, China's first emperor, was protected in his afterlife by an army of terra-cotta warriors that was created more than 2,000 years ago by 700,000 artisans who took more than 36 years to complete it
(C) it took 700,000 artisans more than 36 years to create an army of terra-cotta warriors more than 2,000 years ago that would protect Qin Shi Huang, China's first emperor, in his afterlife
(D) more than 2,000 years ago, 700,000 artisans worked more than 36 years to create an army of terra-cotta warriors to protect Qin Shi Huang, China's first emperor, in his afterlife
(E) more than 36 years were needed to complete the army of terra-cotta warriors that 700,000 artisans created 2,000 years ago to protect Qin Shi Huang, China's first emperor, in his afterlife
A选项里“ in his afterlife is······”读起来总感觉怪怪的,如果把中间的China's first emperor 直接去掉,就变成 the army of terra-cotta warriors created to protect Qin Shi Huang in his afterlife is more than 2.000 years old and took 700.000 artisans more than 36 years to complete,就更看不懂句子结构了,到底应该怎么理解呢?
1.Rivaling the pyramids....这句话肯定是要修饰一个名词,这个名词必须和金字塔差不多同等性质,那么就是兵马俑;
2.the army of terra-cotta warriors created to protect Qin Shi Huang(, China's first emperor, in his afterlife) is more than 2.000 years old and took 700.000 artisans more than 36 years to complete. 这句就是 army created to do sth is more than 2000 years and took... creaded 和 took 是平行的, is 才是main verb
3、根据形容错误排除BCDE
