Madagascar was one of the last habitable areas of the earth to undergo human settlement, which has made it an ideal site for researching rare flora and fauna. D E

(A) Madagascar was one of the last habitable areas of the earth to undergo human settlement, which has made it

(B) Madagascar was one of the last habitable areas of the earth to have undergone human settlement, and that has made it

(C) Madagascar underwent human settlement as one of the last habitable areas of the earth, which makes it

(D) Madagascar, one of the last habitable areas of the earth, underwent human settlement, making it （E）

(E) Because Madagascar was one of the last habitable areas of the earth to undergo human settlement, it is

我认为答案是D,原因是:分词做状语可以表示原因(张道正);E中的不定式to undergo settlement 修饰会产生歧义(可做状语修饰主语,也可做定语修饰earth),且E不简洁(was/ undergo) . D中underwent就表明了关系.综合上面的看法.比较之下D比E好

是不是我有的地方没考虑全,请求拍砖! 谢谢

是呀，我的意思是，D是不对的……

弱弱地说一句：D里面的making引导的应该是伴随状语吧，那伴随状语的主语就应该和主句的主语一致，也就是说是Madagascar make it an ideal site for researching rare flora and fauna，但是实际上题目意思是说Madagascar was one of the last habitable areas of the earth to undergo human settlement这个fact makes it an ideal site for researching rare flora and fauna…… 个人观点，欢迎指正……

分词表示伴随，最主要的是逻辑主语是主句主语。因为M是无生命的，且没有发出什么动作，所以做不了making it 的逻辑主语

但 John always works hard, making himself the best-performing employee in TT company

其实make这个词不好， ”使得“ 感觉放句中多余

总结下D的错误在于：把句子中的重要成分变成了可删除的插入语“ one of the last habitable areas of the earth, ”
且M不可以自己making

这句话是对的。。就是原文的叙述中心不能随便改动。。。

A) Madagascar was one of the last habitable areas of the earth to undergo human settlement, which has made it

(B) Madagascar was one of the last habitable areas of the earth to have undergone human settlement, and that has made it

This option uses the incorrect present perfect tense 'to have undergone'. 'to have undergone' implies that Madagascar is still undergoing human settlement

(C) Madagascar underwent human settlement as one of the last habitable areas of the earth, which makes it

(D) Madagascar, one of the last habitable areas of the earth, underwent human settlement, making it

The red part of the sentence is used as a non essential modifier in this option. This changes the meaning of the sentence. It seems to mean as if because Madagascar underwent human settlement, it is an ideal site.

(E) Because Madagascar was one of the last habitable areas of the earth to undergo human settlement, it is

This option uses the right tense and clearly shows the causal relationship.

此处的last不是表示否定，而是happening or existing at the end, with no others after

我觉的3楼说的有道理，making 没有逻辑主语
E 用了because 代替了逻辑主语的混乱

sayysong

这里的last不是表示否定的意思么，最后一个还未有人类定居的地方。
(the last thing i want to do is to ... )
D的话就变成了 已经有人类定居 的意思了吧。
