OG12诊断里的一道语法题~关于指代问题！求助求助！！！

huisang

50. By developing the Secure Digital Music Initiative, the
recording industry associations of North America,
Japan, and Europe hope to create a standardized way
of distributing songs and full-length recordings on the
Internet that will protect copyright holders and foil the
many audio pirates who copy and distribute digital
music illegally.
(A) of distributing songs and full-length recordings
on the Internet that will protect copyright holders
and foil the many audio pirates who copy and
distribute
(B) of distributing songs and full-length recordings
on the Internet and to protect copyright holders
and foiling the many audio pirates copying and
distributing
(C) for distributing songs and full-length recordings
on the Internet while it protects copyright
holders and foils the many audio pirates who
copy and distribute
(D) to distribute songs and full-length recordings on
the Internet while they will protect copyright
holders and foil the many audio pirates copying
and distributing
(E) to distribute songs and full-length recordings on
the Internet and it will protect copyright holders
and foiling the many audio pirates who copy and
distribute

OG的解释：
Th e original sentence depends on the parallelism
of its verbs to make its point clearly and
eff ectively. A standardized way…will protect and
(will understood) foil; pirates…copy and distribute.
In the first pair of parallel verbs, will does not
need to be repeated because it is understood.
A Correct. Th e verbs will protect and (will ) foil
are parallel in this sentence, as are the verbs
copy and distribute.
B And to protect distorts meaning, suggesting
that protection comes in addition to the
standardized way; foiling is not parallel to
to protect.
C Way for should instead be way of; the
pronoun reference in while it protects is
ambiguous; construction suggests that
protection comes from something other
than the standardized way. it为毛指代不清呢？按单复数来看离它最近的单数名词就是a standardized way of……了呀~
D Pronoun they has no referent; use of while
suggests that protection comes from
something other than the standardized way
of distribution. while引导的从句里的they优先指主句的主语the
recording industry associations of……么？
E And it will protect distorts meaning,
suggesting that protection comes in addition
to the standardized way; will protect and
foiling are not parallel. 这里的意思是and it在与主句平行，好像在指the
recording industry associations of……么？可是从单复数上来讲，指不了啊……

这是OG诊断里的题，实在没找到讨论贴~~希望NN帮助解答以上几个疑问啊！~灰常感谢啊啊啊！~

我觉得从做题的角度来说，可以这样看：
先看idiom,这里可以有两种表达，一种way of... 一种to do；所以只能排除C

然后看指代，Manhattan里面给出的建议是，有些指代即使语法题本身都有问题，也就是说没有100%的绝对真理，这里我个人觉得，我们要揣测出题思路，按照Manhattan的说法，指代错误只出现在：在相同位置，有些选项用指代，而有些可以不用；在这种情况下，优先选择不用指代的选项

谢谢啦！~虽然指代不清是相对错误~可是我最近总结有时候觉得正确的句子也会有指代上的别扭~比如说从句主语优先指主句主语之类~但是也有正确的句子指宾语啊啥的（我也知道是相对错误）……然后OG上对其他题一些题错误选项的解释又会说~他这里这个代词啊（做主语的）貌似是在指前面的主语啊（可是有的题明明从单复数上来看就不能指嘛！）~所以illogical了~搞的我很纠结……不过我想是不是我过分纠结于细节了……sigh 现在做题的时候除非是明显的指代绝对性错误 我都不敢用指代的规则来排除选项~~~

C。前面还有internet啊
D。they指代associations 但逻辑意思不对。应该是a standard way来protect
E. 我也不太确定
个人见解啦

谢谢啦！~另外关于D啊~while引导的从句里的主语是优先指代主句的主语嘛？就是说~只要形式上可以指主句主语~就认为是指主句主语？
