GWD-3-Q28:***严重不明白

The coyote is one of several recent ecological success stories:  along with the white-tailed deer, the moose, and other species that are enlarging their natural domains, they have established themselves as supreme adapters in an era when the capability to adjust to the environmental changes wrought by human beings has created a whole new class of dominant large mammals.

they have established themselves as supreme adapters in an era when the capability

they have established themselves as being supreme adapters in an era when being able

it has established itself as a supreme adapter in an era when to be able

it has established itself as being a supreme adapter in an era when its ability

it has established itself as a supreme adapter in an era when the ability [E]*

为什么B不对呢? 冒号后面有"their natural domains", 所以应该用THEY啊, 怎么答案里用的IT反而对了呢?

哪位前辈解释一下谢谢了啊.(版主, 不好意思啊我看了以前的贴子,没有讨论B的,可我有疑问那)

哦,不是, 刚才搞错了,是为什么不选A呢, B是明显错误的

likui

前面有their (指代the white-tailed deer, the moose, and other species)natural domains，那么后面they也是the white-tailed deer, the moose, and other species；这样你想，会是along with them，they---这不是罗嗦吗

it指代coyote；

along with the white-tailed deer, the moose, and other species，the coyote---

这样比较合情理吧。

而且B里面两个being都是冗余，是GMAT语法改错的大忌。

1. they have established themselves as supreme adapters in an era when the capability


2. they have established themselves as being supreme adapters in an era when being able


3. it has established itself as a supreme adapter in an era when to be able


4. it has established itself as being a supreme adapter in an era when its ability


5. it has established itself as a supreme adapter in an era when the ability [E]*

Apparently, A uses the wrong referent.  The subject of this sentence, "....establish..." should be "the coyote,(a singular noun)" thus making "they" in A and B incorrect.  You mentioned "their natural domain."  I believe that "their" refers to "the white-tailed deer, the moose, and other species."
