问一下OG11 50即OG12 57！费解。。。

向着美好前进

57. That educators have not anticipated the impact of
microcomputer technology can hardly be said that it
is their fault: Alvin Toffler, one of the most prominent
students of the future, did not even mention
microcomputers in Future Shock, published in 1970.
(A) That educators have not anticipated the impact
of microcomputer technology can hardly be said
that it is their fault
(B) That educators have not anticipated the impact
of microcomputer technology can hardly be said
to be at fault
(C) It can hardly be said that it is the fault of
educators who have not anticipated the impact
of microcomputer technology
(D) It can hardly be said that educators are at fault
for not anticipating the impact of microcomputer
technology
(E) The fact that educators are at fault for not
anticipating the impact of microcomputer
technology can hardly be said

正确答案D.

请问C为什么不对？特别是OG说 “it also distorts meaning and lacks completion.” why it lacks completion? 搜了一下之前的帖子，还是没找到很明白的解释~所以再次提出来请教NN们。

还有为什么E选项去掉The fact 还是不对，而且按OG所说，没有很好的传达出句意。（去掉the fact不就是和D选项换了位置吗，哪里有很严重的影响句意的问题呢）

还有目前大家有做到正确选项是that开头的主语从句的题吗？是不是GMAC比较不认可这种表达方式？

我是这样理解的：

1、Construction "that it is … who have not" is wordy and awkward;
这里的"it is the fault of educators who have not …"并不是强调结构，who从句只是作定语而已，it的指代确实不明确，如果写成"it is educators who …"，才能算是强调句；既然连强调句都不是的话，句子层次有点复杂了。
强调结构的语法结构如下：
   用强调句型：“It is（was）＋被强调的部分＋that（who）＋原句其它部分”来强调说话人的意愿，被强调的部分为“人”时用who，为“物”时用that。例如：
   It is only shallow people who judge by appearances.  （只有浅薄的人才会以貌取人。）

2、it also distorts meaning and lacks completion.
通过翻译可以看出，（C）强调的是“ [ 特定 ] 教育者的责任”，即强调一个名词短语，（D）强调的是“教育者 [ 在特定方面 ] 有责任”，即强调一种行为，所以说（C）仅仅强调局部概念，意思扭曲且不完整。
（C）翻译：不能说 { 是教育者的责任 [ 那些没有预料到微机技术影响的教育者 ] }
（D）翻译：不能说 { 教育者有责任 [ 在没有预料到微机技术影响上 ] }

C. it is the fault of educators who have not anticipated the impact of microcomputer technology...
我的理解是，后面的who只是educators的修饰成分，那到底what is the fault???  it指代不明...

#4 #5都讲得特别好
补充一句
C: 同一句话中两个it必须指代同一个事物，显然这里不满足， it's the fault of educators who xxx.   What it refers to?  所以排除
D: it refers to that educators xxx, bingo!

C的问题其实很简单，在GMAT考试中，it这样的指代词在一句里面基本上只能指代一个事物。C选项中这两个it事实上指代的是不同内容，容易混淆。
