OG16-50题关于 which求助

渣渣要考gmat

50. It is called a sea, but the landlocked Caspian is actually the largest lake on Earth, which covers more than four times the surface area of its closest rival in size, North America's Lake Superior. A. It is called a sea, but the landlocked Caspian is actually the largest lake on Earth, which covers B. Although it is called a sea, actually the landlocked Caspian is the largest lake on Earth, which covers C. Though called a sea, the landlocked Caspian is actually the largest lake on Earth, covering D. Though called a sea but it actually is the largest lake on Earth, the landlocked Caspian covers E. Despite being called a sea, the largest lake on Earth is actually the landlocked Caspian, covering

想请教下，A和B为什么不对 我看了之前的帖子 觉得A和B中which是可以跳过 on earth代指 the largest lake 的 想问A、B错在哪？？
还有就是C中covering不会有做定语修饰earth的歧义吗？？
求各位大神解答

comma ving只有在其前面只有noun的时候才修饰noun，比如188的正确答案。至于OG答案说存才修饰adult的错误 ...

恩非常同意comma ving只有在其前面只有noun的时候才修饰noun 其他时候优先做伴随状语或者结果状语吧

comma ving只有在其前面只有noun的时候才修饰noun，比如188的正确答案。至于OG答案说存才修饰adult的错误，不太认同。觉得这个错误主要在于没有表示同时发生或立即结果。而且comma ving本身就有与主句action同时发生的含义，在前面又加now，再次强调时间也有点多余

这是曼哈顿的解答，三楼Tim的解答和OG一样，有人就问道了adult的这个问题，5楼Ron的解答则说错误是在用法意思上（我觉得这个更合理点~）

能明白这里covering作为伴随状语
不过想在问一下 这里的covering就没有做定语修饰earth的歧义吗？？
如下题d选项：
188.
Neuroscientists, having amassed a wealth of knowledge over the past twenty years about the brain and its development from birth to adulthood, are now drawing solid conclusions about how the human brain grows and how babies acquire language.
A.Neuroscientists, having amassed a wealth of knowledge over the past twenty years about the brain and its development from birth to adulthood, are
B.Neuroscientists, having amassed a wealth of knowledge about the brain and its development from birth to adulthood over the past twenty years, and are
C.Neuroscientists amassing a wealth of knowledge about the brain and its development from birth to adulthood over the past twenty years, and are
D.Neuroscientists have amassed a wealth of knowledge over the past twenty years about the brain and its development from birth to adulthood,     
E.Neuroscientists have amassed, over the past twenty years, a wealth of knowledge about the brain and its development from birth to adulthood,

这里对D选项的解释：D.The final descriptor in present tense, now drawing conclusions … does not fit the opening clause, which is in present-perfect tense (have amassed a wealth …) and seems to modify adulthood.
是说有可能作定语修饰到adults的  那前面这道题的covering就没有这种歧义 修饰earth吗？？还是说逻辑上不可能修饰earth就默认不可能修饰erath呢？？

这几个题好像是有跳跃，不仔细看还没注意，考点都是语义和句子间的逻辑关系和指代，我个人觉得跳跃指代很少是hard split

谢谢分享，NN说了是表示of带的所属关系，或者指代核心词，反正我暂时还没遇到过
另外还可以参考这个题。

which修饰确实有可以跳跃的情况，...noun prep phrase，which...当这一结构中的介词短语确实修饰noun时，which是可以跳过这一介词短语修饰noun的。
which指代largest lake的语义上不如明确指代C湖好，世界上最大的湖与S湖比较，没有C湖与S湖比较更好，更明确。
感觉covers修饰C湖更明确。语义向来是难点，我也不太擅长
比如：小明是十班最高的人，这个最高的人比二班最高的人还高。
         小明是十班最高的人，小明（或他）比二班最高的人还高。
就是这个感觉，类似于当选项中出现代词与具体名词差别时，具体名词更好。
这里，covers这个修饰我们可以理解到是C湖发出的动作时，直接修饰C湖，比修饰largest lake更好。
OG解释就是这个意思“Grammatically, its antecedent cannot be the landlocked Caspian, so it must be either Earth or the largest lake on Earth. The latter is a little odd, because the sentence has already said that the lake in question is the Caspian, so one would expect and instead of which.”

ab中it虽然不判错，但是也没c那么明确
By merging its two publishing divisions, the company will increase their share of the country's $21 billion book market from 6 percent to 10 percent, a market ranging from obscure textbooks to mass-market paperbacks.
A. their share of the country's $21 billion book market from 6 percent to 10 percent, a market ranging
B. from 6 percent to 10 percent its share of the $21 billion book market in the country, which ranges
C. to 10 percent from 6 percent in their share of the $21 billion book market in the country, a market ranging

which并不可以跳跃指代，除非后面的单复数暗示了，所以这里指代的是earth
就算退一万步which指代的那个湖好 ...

那请问这里面关于which跳过代指的说明 什么意思呢？
A 和 B中it能不能根据并列句和主从句的代词代指规则  代指后面的landlocked Caspian呢？？
