in addition to的用法

Lanmie

In addition to her work on the Miocene hominid fossil record, Mary Leakey contributed to archaeology with her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and painstakingly documenting East African cave paintings.


(A) Leakey contributed to archaeology with her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and painstakingly documenting
(B) Leakey contributed to archaeology by her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and by painstakingly documenting
(C) Leakey was a contributor to archaeology with her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and with her painstaking documentation of
(D) Leakey's contributions to archaeology include her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and her painstaking documentation of
(E) Leakey's contributions to archaeology include discovering the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and painstaking documentation of




求C选项的解释！读完句子，我的感觉是会产生歧义，in addition to后面的可能和archaeology 平行，也可能和with后面的discovery 和 documentation平行。不太确定这个选项的具体错误在哪，求大侠现身！
另外，In addition to A, SVO. S需要和A是同类事物吗？比如这道题，因为in addition to 后面接的是her work, 所以主句的主语不能是人物应该是与之对应的事物"contributions"???
能给我说说in addition to 吗？


感激涕零！！！

Manhattan:
At the beginning of a sentence, you can use this construction to add another example to the subject. you can also use it to add another example to a different noun in the sentence, such as the object of the verb or some other noun.
e.g. In addition to taxes, death is inevitable.
       In addition to Munster cheese, I like Swiss.
我的理解是，in addition to 后面的成分不一定要和主语相平行，但是要和对应成分在逻辑上相平行。
摘多枚栗子！
In addition to having more protein than wheat does, the protein in rice is higher quality than that in wheat, with more of the amino acids essential to the humandiet.

(A) the protein in rice is higher quality than that in  
(B) rice has protein of higher quality than that in
(C) the protein in rice is higher in quality than itis in
(D) rice protein is higher in quality than it is in
(E) rice has aprotein higher in quality than
首先，having more protein修饰rice, 主句的主语只能是rice，才符合逻辑。
其次，having more protein和has protein of higher quality相平行，表示rice所含的protein不仅在数量上比wheat的多，质量上也比wheat的好。
当然这道题的考点应该不在in addition to, 而是logical predication.

还是求指导~怕自己被自己绕进坑里了！！！！！！

国庆大家都去耍了么？

还是没有人来说说C错在哪儿了么？
前人都只是说它表达模糊~~~
难道它就是错在了模糊？！

A. discovery和documenting不平行。

B. discovery和documenting不平行。

C. 该选项采用了Mary Leakey was a contributor…with x and with y句型，没有明确Mary Leakey的 贡献与x/y之间的关系，be a contributor所表达的意思与原句不同。比如说，I am a singer with a five-year old kid. 我是一个有个五岁小孩的歌手，但是有小孩和是歌手之间并没有直接联系。换" 到这个句子当中来，Mary Leakey was a contributor with a five-year old kid.同理成立，但是kid 和contributor之间没有联系，并不是Mary有个五岁小孩所以就是贡献者。同理理解该选项的问题。 相比之下，

D选项直接明了的说，Mary Leakey的贡献就是她的发现以及对洞穴画的记录和描述， 清晰直接的说出了句子内容之间的联系。所以，相比之下，C选项不如DD. 正确。

E. discovering和documentation不平行。句子结构：Mary Leakey's contributions to archaeology include x and y. 其中，x、y为结构平行，含 义对称的结构。考点:平行对称（Parallelism）名词性的名词结构，和动词性的名词结构（动名词等）是有区别的。在判断某一平行结构是否正 确时，这两种结构虽然从语法层次都属于名词结构，但是在含义层次一个表名词，另一个表动作， 是不同的概念，不可以平行。比如此题中，discovery可以和documentation平行，都是名词； discovering和documenting都是动名词，词性是名词，但是表动作含义，也可以平行；但是discovery 和documenting之间不能平行，因为含义和性质不相同。
