31. The remarkable similarity of Thule artifacts throughout a vast region can, in part,
be explained as a very rapid movement of people from one end of North America to
the other.
(A) The remarkable similarity of Thule artifacts throughout a vast region
can, in part, be explained as
(B) Thule artifacts being remarkably similar throughout a vast region, one
explanation is
(C) That Thule artifacts are remarkably similar throughout a vast region is,
in part, explainable as
(D) One explanation for the remarkable similarity of Thule artifacts
throughout a vast region is that there was
(E) Throughout a vast region Thule artifacts are remarkably similar, with
one explanation for this being
正确答案是D，想问为什么不能选A呢？

A意思不对。就相当于Thule文物的相似处可以被解释为一种快速迁移。【相似处是迁移】
其实应该是对这么显著的相似处的一种可能的解释是，这里有迁移。

哦~明白了~谢谢！

不如前

想知道为什么OG说B的主语不明确？

1.我也有很多疑问 为什么OG上对A的解释是 相似是迁移的结果   这与 相似是迁移 有什么区别吗？
2.关于B选项，有NN能解释一下吗？虽然知道他不对，可是就是不知道怎么说它到底如何错的    关于B选项前面这个修饰语还有些疑惑，being前面的 Thule artifacts 在语法结构上是做什么的，暗示了什么。这个可以把这个Thule artifacts being remarkably similar throughout a vast region当initial modifier来看到吗？ Being在这里到底是什么性质？


跪求解答呀！！！！！！

我很想问下C，THAT 引导了一个主语从句，所以is是对的呀，that引导的主语从句表示一个事，这个事被解释为后面的内容，怎么不对了呢？避免了A中similarity 与 movement 错。

Heavy commitment by an executive to a course of action, especially if it has worked well in the past, makes it likely to miss signs of incipient trouble or misinterpret them when they do appear.

A. Heavy commitment by an executive to a course of action, especially if it has worked well in the past, makes it likely to miss signs of incipient trouble or misinterpret them when they do appear.
B. An executive who is heavily committed to a course of action, especially one that worked well in the past, makes missing signs of incipient trouble or misinterpreting ones likely when they do appear.
C. An executive who is heavily committed to a course of action is likely to miss or misinterpret signs of incipient trouble when they do appear, especially if it has worked well in the past.
D. Executives’ being heavily committed to a course of action, especially if it has worked well in the past, makes them likely to miss signs of incipient trouble or misinterpreting them when they do appear.
E. Being heavily committed to a course of action, especially one that has worked well in the past, is likely to make an executive miss signs of incipient trouble or misinterpret them when they do appear.

除了这道其他being都是错的， 因为og 的解释是wordy
A
我个人的看法是 explained as 有逻辑错误。
explained by 比较好理解，有因果关系

og里指出 that和is 的错误，
我也觉的在语法上是对的。
但是这里和 a的错误一样， explained as 我认为替换成explained by更好表达两者的；联系

(C) That Thule artifacts are remarkably similar throughout a vast region is,
in part, explainable as
此处主要是explainable as的问题，短语使用不当。be explainable as 的意思里有与什么相同的意思，此处应为因果关系。可用其他词代替，比如be explained by，或者改成D,更加清楚。

此种语义细节的辨析还是需要细致体会的。
