Unlike using spices for cooking, in medicinal usage they are taken in large quantities in order to treat particular maladies.

(A) Unlike using spices for cooking, in medicinal usage they are taken

(B) Unlike spices that are used in cooking, in using spices for medicine, they are taken

(C) Unlike cooking with spices, taking spices for medicinal use is done

(D) In cooking, small quantities of spices are used, whereas in medicinal usage spices are taken

(E) In cooking, the usage of spices is in small quantities, whereas in medicinal usage they are taken

答案是D。
我选的是E。我觉得E比较平行对称啊，主语都是the usage啊。

(E) In cooking, the usage of spices is in small quantities, whereas in medicinal usage they are taken.....按语法前面的 they是指代的 the usage of spices。 指代错误啊，如果是指代spices 的话应该把they 改成spices明确指出为好。所以选D。

i see，
如果后面的they是it的话，就对了对么？

it是不可以的，因为前后不是一个东西，需要用that等，其次，后面是taken，所以只能 是spices，不用it

In using spices for medicine 夹在中间 不知道是 修饰前面的还是后面的~

一般而言，介词短语是作为状语修饰动作的，所以这题的 前后问题倒不是很大
主要问题是，using的动作主题是谁？根据后半句，明显可以看出不是人，所以错误

你是说的 squinting modifier
但是B里面已经有了in cooking了 不可能再用in using spices for medicine修饰前面一个句子吧··
一直很困惑这种 摇摆产生修饰歧义的句子 需不需要考虑逻辑意思  即如果从逻辑上来说 根本没办法修饰前一句 但是从语法上来说有这种可能 可以通过这点来排除选项么？

31.A star will compress itself into a white dwarf, a neutron star, or a black hole after it passes through a red giant stage, depending on mass.
（A）A star will compress itself into a white dwarf, a neutron star, or a black hole after it passes through a red giant stage, depending on mass.
(B) After passing through a red giant stage, depending on its mass, a star will compress itself into a white dwarf, a neutron star, or a black hole. （摇摆，可前可后）
(D) Mass determines whether a star, after passing through the red giant stage, will compress itself into a white dwarf, a neutron star, or a black hole.（不摇摆，区分B）
D也是这种双逗号之间夹了一个 状语  但是却不摇摆 因为无论是修饰上举还是下句 都一样·

(B) Unlike spices that are used in cooking, in using spices for medicine, they are taken

那个，想顺便问一下关于 B的错误是哪里？they的指带没问题，指代spices这个，然后为--有人说是 in using..这个错误？为何？谢谢

那是他没说完全啊，表示同类事的确如此，另外同类事得表达方式就是以noun 来表达。unlike 你查朗文 就知道了啊 unlike ： completely different from a particular person or thing。 所以不是 person 或 thing 的均不对啊，有时候建议你查下 一个单词的英文意思，其实英文意思里就暗示了语法。呵呵~

unlike 后面是加noun 啊，不能加doing 啊。

我刚刚从新东方的笔记里看到
unlike A, B do......，A与B是同类事就可以，没有说一定要求名词啊~

是撒~呵呵~~
