OG 12 SC 81 有关平行的问题

81. Recently physicians have determined that stomach
ulcers are not caused by stress, alcohol, or rich foods,
but a bacterium that dwells in the mucous lining of the
stomach.
(A) not caused by stress, alcohol, or rich foods, but
(B) not caused by stress, alcohol, or rich foods, but
are by
(C) caused not by stress, alcohol, or rich foods,
but by
(D) caused not by stress, alcohol, and rich foods, but
(E) caused not by stress, alcohol, and rich foods,
but are by



这里的平行是不是应该从not就开始。也就是说此句可以是not caused by.., but caused by... 或者 caused not by... ,but by...

发问题的时候好像自己弄明白了。。。只想确认一下。。。

我觉得这个平行结构关键在于保留介词by的平行。lz说得还满正确的，不过不是not的平行，而是原因的并行。

恩懂了，感谢 =）
也就是not x but y这个短语中 x，y部分的内容平行，不在乎not是caused 前面还是后面？

是滴~~
