OG解释如下图。

选D的话原句的转折不是颠倒了吗？虽然D读起来是比较顺，不过到底什么时候忠于原句，什么时候可以改变结构，好迷茫啊 @_@===

在语法用词都没问题的时候尽量忠于原句吧

这题就是没有忠于原句，所以才纠结啊 ORZ...

B的错误是不是consider...as?

楼主，我这么来拆一下这道题，你看看好理解嘛：
先从原句看语义：尽管她被同龄人认为是比她丈夫更好的poet，但是她（的成功）之后还是被丈夫的成功所遮蔽
1. 从语义来看，前后两句内容，先不论转折的前后顺序，仅从内容上看是的确有转折关系的，although用法正确
2. 从语义来看，比较的有两层意思，一层是她是比她丈夫更好的poet，二是两者的成功程度比较
A选项，后面EB被她丈夫的成功所遮蔽，这不对，应该成功跟成功比
B选项同理
C选项没有了转折关系
E选项成了前半部分成了比较poetry和她的丈夫，比较对象也不对
这样就只能选D了

我认为不用纠结转折的前后顺序（这也不是GMAT考察的核心），更关键的还是理清句义，搞清楚到底转折关系是否成立（回答是还是否就可以了，不用回答前还是后）以及比较逻辑是否成立

醍醐灌顶， 我完全忽略了比较对象是成功的程度，这下明白了！撒花！谢谢！

我看到ron大神好像讲过，虽然grammar是在meaning的前提下找的（比如平行得根据意思看什么和什么平行），但是，grammar错误是硬伤，在排除掉grammar错误后再根据meaning是否有变或是否concise来排除。
这一题，从意思上来说，d的语法没错误，只不过和之前Manhattan说的有一个点不一样了。因此除d之外的对比错误等等是硬伤，优先选d。

Note the following:
In the OA, the referent for she (subject pronoun) seems to be Elizabeth Barrett Browning's (a possessive).
In years past, this sort of construction was thought to be an error on the GMAT.
The OA to SC138 in the OG16 establishes a precedent:
On the current GMAT, it is permissible for a subject pronoun such as she to serve to refer to a possessive.
