不过是几个春

Rising inventories, when unaccompanied correspondingly by increases in sales, can lead to production cutbacks that would hamper economic growth.

(A) when unaccompanied correspondingly by increases in sales, can lead
(B) when not accompanied by corresponding increases in sales, possibly leads
(C) when they were unaccompanied by corresponding sales increases, can lead
(D) if not accompanied by correspondingly increased sales, possibly leads
(E) if not accompanied by corresponding increases in sales, can lead
A项 解释说“the adverb correspondingly is incorrectly and ambiguously used”, 但我就是没看出来怎么“incorrectly and ambiguously”， correspondingly不能修饰accompanied 吗？为什么非得以corresponding 修饰increases in sales?

木以晨夕

因为句子要表达的意思是“上升的库存如果没有相应增加的销售量”，会造成生产量减少，进而阻碍经济发展” 所以corresponding一定要修饰increases in sales. 如果换成correspondingly,就是修饰unaccompanied,“相应地伴随”？？语义不对了

不过是几个春

谢谢解疑啊，明白了为什么corresponding要修饰increases in sales

求问：“correspondingly increased sales" 这个Phrase存在歧义吗？我觉得也说得通呀

一个的核心词是sales，另一个核心词是increase. 略不同。但最主要的区别是possibly和can 。
