OG13 SC92. 为什么不能用Both求解释

wangxiaokun

92. Thelonious Monk, who was a jazz pianist and composer, produced a body of work both rooted in the stride-piano tradition of Willie (The Lion) Smith and Duke Ellington, yet in many ways he stood apart from the mainstream jazz repertory.

(A)  Thelonious Monk, who was a jazz pianist and composer, produced a body of work both rooted

(B)  Thelonious Monk, the jazz pianist and composer, produced a body of work that was rooted both

(C)  Jazz pianist and composer Thelonious Monk, who produced a body of work rooted

(D)  Jazz pianist and composer Thelonious Monk produced a body of work that was rooted

(E)  Jazz pianist and composer Thelonious Monk produced a body of work rooted both


Correct Answer: D

解释上说The appearance of both is misleading, since only one point is being made about where Monk's musical roots are located.
不理解这是什么意思，为什么only one point is made?

求解释，谢谢！！

苏木解释的很好，另一方面如果来不及细想句子意思的话可以从结构上解释，一般both...and都是要求结构平行的，前面如果是both rooted in 的话后面也得是and rooted in,而不会直接是个人名

lz要仔细看看句意。。
句子中说的work仅仅是rooted在stride-piano tradition这一个对象，后面的Willie (The Lion) Smith and Duke Ellington是修饰stride-piano tradition，所以解释才说只有one point，要是用了both...and...的话就把这个整体分割成stride-piano tradition of Willie (The Lion) Smith和Duke Ellington并列了，不合理。。
