18. Temporary-employment agencies benefit not only from the increasing demand for clerical workers but also the higher profits made when highly paid professionals are placed, requests for whom have increased in the recent wave of corporate takeovers.
(A) the higher profits made when highly paid professionals are placed, requests for whom
(B) the higher profits that are made in the placement of highly paid professionals, requests for whom
(C) from the requests for highly paid professionals, who make higher profits for the agencies when placed and whose requests
(D) from highly paid professionals, whose placement makes higher profits for the agencies and whose requests
(E) from the higher profits made in placing highly paid professionals, requests for whom

答案位E.

这道题从not only... but also... 连接的两个部分要对称的角度来讲应该C更好啊!
not only from the increasing demand for clerical workers but also from the requests for highly paid professionals...完全对称啊!

而E 选项:
not only from the increasing demand for clerical workers but also from the higher profits made in placing highly paid professionals 不对称啊!!!

请教NN， C选项错在哪里？还有这个对称问题到底怎么讲？谢谢！

(C) from the requests for highly paid professionals, who make higher profits for the agencies when placed and whose requests.

who 和 whose 感觉不平行。the requests 和whose requests.重复，这样意思表达不好。

谢谢jnlvo! 不过同意whose requests 重复。但是who 和 whose 为什么不平行呢？都是定语从句啊？

C最关键的错误是变了原文的含义

e好。我也错选了c。但是仔细比较c与e后，发现c虽然表面上更加对称，但是c改变了句意。原句的意思是“不仅从对clerical workers 增加的需求中受益，而且从highly paid professionals 所创造的高额利润中受益”（从a项可以获知），但c把句意改为了“不仅从对clerical workers 增加的需求中受益，而且从对highly paid professionals增加的需求中受益。”
看来句意理解在gmat中占有重要位置呀！

我不同意这种说法，第二种说法-"不仅从对clerical workers 增加的需求中受益，而且从对highly paid professionals增加的需求中受益。"也是完全可以的，对clerical workers 和
highly paid professionals的需求增加都使得agency受益，这里我把request看成跟demand并列-都是指需求，agency从社会对这2种人的需求中受益。但这样的话，request就不应该是复数了。

前人估计早已完成学业了，不过我还是不明白这道题，还是要问问。

我也选的是C.感觉C的并列平行结构很完美。

E也能说得通。

有没有大牛现身给个说明？先谢了！
