885 补充005 113：关于修饰、代词指代等的讨论

113.    Although aspirin irritates the stomach, it can be avoided if the aspirin tablet is given a coating that will not dissolve until the tablet reaches the intestine.
(A) Although aspirin irritates the stomach, it
(B) The irritation of the stomach caused by aspirin
(C) The fact that aspirin causes irritation of the stomach
(D) Aspirin causes stomach irritation, although it
(E) Aspirin irritates the stomach, which
做此题时在B,D间不断徘徊，尽管B相对较好，但根据OG, caused by aspirin 可修饰stomach, 产生歧义并导致逻辑不通。
而d, it指代可能产生歧义，但og中代词指代前面就近的名词非常普遍，当然也有不少指代前面主句主语。另外根据lzm的理论，d把原句主从关系颠倒了。
问题讨论：
1、代词指代前面就近的名词和指代主语有无优先级；og上似乎两者都有
2、lzm的句子主要信息和从属信息论在机考中管用么？og中对这一点很少提及，尽管有极少数题说要注意原意

从句中的主语代词应该优先指代主句主语。

nettalker

但以下两题的ANSWER中代词they 并非指代主句主语呀，真题中很多类似的用法，一时找不齐，大家有什么心得？我目前只能看当时感觉了，总之不能绝对判错。请指教

关于代词指代的问题CD好像讨论过，主要是根据逻辑判断，而不能只根据就近等原则。OG227考REQUIRE的虚拟语气，这样其他四个悬想马上被排除。
XDF332是否选B？
我倒是不明白885的113 为什么C不对？

113 C错在the fact can be avoided....
