请问大家有没有一个说法是,in that 优于for 优于because 优于because of 的,因为之前我们老师是这么说的,然后做题也一直很顺,直到看到了这道题:

The Olympic Games helped to keep peace among the pugnacious states of the Greek world in that a sacred truce was proclaimed during the festival's month.

(A) world in that a sacred truce was proclaimed during the festival's month
(B) world, proclaiming a sacred truce during the festival's month
(C)   world when they proclaimed a sacred truce for the festival month
(D) world, for a sacred truce was proclaimed during the month of the festival
(E) world by proclamation of a sacred truce that was for the month of the festival

以下是gmac给的解释:
Idiom;   Rhetorical construction
This sentence depends on using the correct conjunction to join two independent clauses. In that is a conjunction that means inasmuch as; because in that has largely gone out of use, it is considered stilted and overly formal. It also uses two words when one would do. In this sentence, the second clause explains the first one, so the conjunction for, meaning because, is the most appropriate choice for joining the two independent clauses of the compound sentence. Festival's month is an awkward and imprecise use of the possessive; during the month of the festival is clearer.

A    In that is stilted and overly formal.
B     It is not clear who would be doing the proclaiming; a clause is preferable to a phrase here.
C     They is ambiguous, possibly referring to either the states or the Games. The phrase truce for the festival month loses the sense that
it's to take place for the duration of the month.
D    Correct. In this sentence, the conjunction for joins the two clauses correctly and economically.
E    Wordy and awkward construction.
A的选项解释是太僵硬不自然而且过于正式,所以大家能回答我一下是不是真的没有这个规律:in that 优于for 优于because 优于because of
谢谢啦~

1、“in that 优于for 优于because 优于because of”,这个说法太应试了,不符合我们CDer追求真理的精神

2、本质来说,in that的意思和because不一样,不是单纯的解释因果关系。
引自RON大神:
'in that' is used to limit a general statement. 即in that是用来描述导致主句成立的某个限制条件
for instance: my brother and i are similar in that we both like to read.
the function of 'in that' here is to say, 'hey reader, this is the only way in which i'm asserting that we are similar.'

3、回到该题,可以发现,for作为因果关系连词,比in that更符合句意。

4、RON说OG答案解释的编写是外包的,水平堪忧,不能全信。

OG SC的重要性是第一名!
但是在碰到错题了,不能全信OG的答案解释,还是要上论坛看讨论贴。

您好 我知道啦 在请教您一个问题呀:with 型独立主格,与主句形成紧密的逻辑联系,形式为:
由“with        +宾语+宾补”构成的复合结构,在句中可作状语,表示伴随。这一结构中的宾语补足语
可由现在分词、过去分词、形容词、副词或介词短语等来充当

Visitors to the park have often looked into the leafy canopy and seen monkeys sleeping on the
branches, with arms and legs hanging like socks on a clothesline.   (来自prep07大神笔记)

这句话伴随状语到底修饰的是主句主语visitors,还是monkeys呢?句意理解肯定是monkeys,但是伴随状语的主语不应该只能是主句主语吗?有点儿混乱的说。
