og12-117 一个小疑惑

none123

George Sand (Aurore Lucile Dupin) was one of the first European writers to consider the rural

poor to be legitimate subjects for literature and portray these with sympathy and respect in her

novels.

(A) to be legitimate subjects for literature and portray these

(B) should be legitimate subjects for literature and portray these

(C) as being legitimate subjects for literature and portraying them

(D) as if they were legitimate subjects for literature and portray them

(E) legitimate subjects for literature and to portray them
答案解释说e选项里面portray前面的to是不必要的，写出来只是为了保持平行，但是如果把这个to去掉了，那么portray后面的them是不是有指代subjects的嫌疑呢？

感觉楼主这里不必要太纠结
代词指代不清晰不是优先考虑的split点
Ron说过，如果你觉得一个代词指代有歧义，那么看看其他选项中，这个代词是不是被替换成了其他词，比如一个具体的名词，如果没有，那么这个代词就不存在指代不清晰的问题，不作为split

不会有嫌疑啊，portray 和 consider 平行，所以应都指代the rural poor。
