Caribou are wary animals with excellent hearing, so stalking them over the treeless landscape, getting close enough to kill it with nothing but a handheld lance, as Dorset people did, required exceptional hunting skill.

A. so stalking them over the treeless landscape, getting close enough to kill it
B. so to stalk them over the treeless landscape and get close enough to kill one
C. so in order to stalk them over the treeless landscape and get close enough to kill one
D. and so in order to stalk it over the treeless landscape, getting close enough to kill it
E. and so stalking them over the treeless landscape and getting close enough in order to kill it
E选项解释说 “and后半句没有主句”,请问"stalking them over the treeless landscape and getting close enough in order to kill it" 不能做主语么?
只分析E选项吧,讲下思路,其他有问题再问。
E. and so stalking them over the treeless landscape and getting close enough in order to kill it
首先,确定整段话有两个句子,中间用连接词连接。Caribou是一个警惕的动物,为了抓住它需要特别的技巧。
然后,确定有两个句子就找连接词,E选项and 和 so redundant了,两个连接词,manhattan语法笔记第一章就规定了句子结构。
接着看,E选项使用and连接两个present participle的并列结构做主语,doing A and doing B required C. 结构ok,但是,从Ron神经常说的段落要表达的语意上理解,追踪和靠近Caribou是目的,是猎人掌握特别的技巧的目的。所以用infinitive phrase——to do 显然比present participle更加make sense。
最后,整段话就没有it的单数先行词,并列结构前半段用过stalking them指代Caribou,后面用it,直接排出。
感觉是prep说错了吧 各大论坛里都强调E错是因为选项里的那个it错了 没有任何人强调缺不缺主语的问题啊 两个v-ing用and连接起来一起做主语完全可以的啊 要是E改成 and so stalking them over the treeless landscape and getting close enough to kill one 就完全正确了?????求大神快出现啊
