Heirloom tomatoes, grown from seeds saved from the previous year, only look less appetizing than their round and red supermarket cousins, often green and striped, or have plenty of bumps and bruises, but are more flavorful.

A.     cousins, often green and striped, or have plenty of bumps and bruises, but are

B.     cousins, often green and striped, or with plenty of bumps and bruises, although

C.     cousins, often green and striped, or they have plenty of bumps and bruises, although they are

D.     cousins; they are often green and striped, or with plenty of bumps and bruises, although

E     cousins; they are often green and striped, or have plenty of bumps and bruises, but they are

答案是E, 可我认为E中的they指代不明确，可能指代cousins, 但需要指代Heirloom tomatoes.从转折的意思来看，后面应该用but, 而不是although, 所以我的答案是A.但我也不确定。

如果选A,often green and striped就变成修饰cousins了，本来是应该是修饰heirloom tomatoes的。

E里面，有分号隔开，they 就是指主语heirloom tomatoes。

那e， but 后面为什么又要重复they呢？

D.     cousins; they are often green and striped, or with plenty of bumps and bruises, although

E     cousins; they are often green and striped, or have plenty of bumps and bruises, but they are

i also choose A ,because "THEIR " in the first part of the sentence is refer to "Heirloom tomatoes" , but becasse "THEY " in E refers to "supermarket cousins"  . therefore cause confuse

E - they are often green and striped, or have plenty of bumps and bruises, but they are

the 2 "they" both refer to "Heirloom tomatoes" without any ambiguity and confusion.

我发现读懂句子逻辑意思对选择太重要了.

E中的THEY与第一句主语位置对称平行,不会有歧义.

A,B,C中紧接COUSINS候紧接一堆形容词,才会构成歧义的.

我没有看出这里有平行，E中的they明确了指代对象不是从逻辑上推出的，而是从第一句中的their中推出的，句子中一套代词只能指代同一个对象。

支持选E!

Why not D?

代词有两个点个人认为比较重要:

1\在一个句子之中,最好,所有的代词均指代同一个对象,本句子中,大家都指代西红柿

2\代词的指代顺序,并不是说代词they前面发现两个复数名字,they就必须杀掉.    they指代有一个优先的顺序:主句的主语>主句的宾(表)语>修饰成分中名词.这一点可以在OG和白勇的书里面看到.感觉比较管用.我们很多时候会被头脑里面红字部分的那个概念困扰.

A中同意就近修饰歧义的说法,另外A很可能导致句子变成   S  ....look.....,or have...,but are...感觉比较乱,不知道这样的结构对不对,恳请指教.
