27: Problems at a California securities firm rippled through the penny-stock market, forcing at least one Florida brokerage firm to stop trading, and it sent the shares of several small companies tumbling.

A: forcing at least one Florida brokerage firm to stop trading, and it sent

B: forcing at least one Florida brokerage firm to stop trading and sending

C: forced at least one Florida brokerage firm to stop trading and sending

D: with at least one Florida brokerage firm forced to stop trading and sending

E: at least one Florida brokerage firm was forced to stop trading, and it sent

这道题我选了C，因为觉得rippled through 应该是修饰problem的，但是似乎选B的人比较多，还请赐教。

seekmydream

选B。

C：如果rippled through 修饰problems不能用被动语态，应该用that rippled through 或表主动的现在分词rippling through. 所以rippled through只能做主句的谓语，forcing...and sending...做伴随结果的状语。 而且C中的and sending与forced 也不平行。

这下明白了，多谢！

我将和sending平行的逻辑关系搞错了

endless_tao

..., forcing ... to stop trading and sending ...

I do not think this is a sound structure.

我对(B)有疑问

难道都不会有一种歧义是把to stop trading and (to stop) sending放一起吗？

umm..."send shares tumbling/plummeting"在財經版上常有...
send在這裡可以理解為"令到"

NYTimes:
Higher Oil Prices Send Share Prices Plummeting Again.

对嘛，，sending可以去和forcing并列，也可以和trading并列，难道修饰没有歧义么？

顶楼上,还是说to stop trading and (to stop) sending只有在补齐to stop的情况下才表示这个意思?

还有一个问题,Problems能发出send的这个动作么?

 sent the shares of several small companies tumbling到底是什么意思啊？
