C,D 两个选项从意思上来看,个人认为是C要好一点。因为原句(A选项)表达的就是一种对比——unlike, 可是D中的even though 却有一种假设的感觉——即使。。。所以尽管C没有那么concise,我为了遵从句意而选择了C,不知道大家怎么看呢?(比如:even though 可以有另一种解读?) 新手初来乍到,不胜感激啊!

附上原题:
Unlike the conviction held by many of her colleagues
that genes were relatively simple and static, Barbara
McClintockadhered to her own more complicated
ideas about how genes might operate, and in 1983,
at the age of 81, was awarded a Nobel Prize for her
discovery that the genes in corn are capable of
movingfrom one chromosomal site to another.

(A) Unlike the conviction held by many of her
colleagues that genes were
(B) Although many of her colleagues were of the
conviction of genes being
(C) Contrary to many of her colleagues being
convinced that genes were
(D) Even though many of her colleagues were
convinced that genes were
(E) Even with many of her colleagues convinced of
genes being

遵從語意,並不是說A項說什麼都是對的。有的題目類型就是A項本身就是錯的(illogical or ambiguous),但是讀完選項以後你還是可以大致把握作者的意思,然後據此去選出logical and no ambiguous的choice。

讀完A項以後,大概可以把握meaning是:BM的同事認為genes是相對simple and static的,但是BM卻...

主要的是把握句子的邏輯關係,上面很明顯有一個contrasting的意思。然後應該選出含有這個意思的,而且語法正確的一項。

(C)being沒必要。
注意,being的出現不一定是錯的。但是這裡不需要being,直接“contrary to many of her colleagues convinced that...”就可了。

(C)even though表示儘管,even though的使用使得句子的邏輯清晰易懂。

至於lz所說的concision問題,
MANHATTAN說,concision只是到最後只剩下2-3個選項的時候用來做優選的,不能作為排除選項的絕對性依據。
一般在meaning和grammar正確的時候,才去考慮concision吧^^

一般有being都不对。除非是sth is being made表示正在被做或者是Being ill, I cannot go to work.这种可以对,别的有being就是多余之类的。果断选D
