GWD1-Q2:
By merging its two publishing divisions, the company will increase their share of the country’s $21 billion book market from 6
percent to 10 percent, a market ranging from obscure textbooks to mass-market paperbacks.
A. their share of the country’s $21 billion book market from 6 percent to 10 percent, a market ranging
B. from 6 percent to 10 percent its share of the $21 billion book market in the country, which ranges
C. to 10 percent from 6 percent in their share of the $21 billion book market in the country, a market ranging
D. in its share, from 6 percent to 10 percent, of the $21 billion book market in the country, which ranges
E. to 10 percent from 6 percent its share of the country’s $21 billion book market, which ranges

GWD的答案是B，

PREP 2008语法笔记给的答案是E。
A. their指代the company错误。Ranging使得后面的分句没有谓语。
B. which可以跳跃指代，但是此处which离其指代对象隔了一个状语in the country，而且country与ranges
是gramatically matched的，故B不佳。
C. their错误同A，ranging错误同A。
D. which错误同B；of和要连接的对象离的太远不好。
E. correct；which离其指代对象比B更近，因此更好，记住选项是比出来的；to…from…结构中to 10 percent
提前以示强调；逻辑上讲，一个国家的图书市场不可能只有从from obscure textbooks to mass-market
paperbacks，所以which逻辑上指代its share of the country's $21 billion book market整体。


个人也倾向于E。
求解释
