The single-family house constructed by the Yana, a Native American people who lived in what is now northern California, was conical in shape, its framework of poles overlaid with slabs of bark, either cedar or pine, and banked with dirt to a height of three to four feet.

 

 

(A) banked with dirt to a height of

(B) banked with dirt as high as that of

(C) banked them with dirt to a height of

(D) was banked with dirt as high as

(E) was banked with dirt as high as that of

我想问， E was banked with 和 was conical 平行修饰 single family house

 E was banked with 和 was conical 平行修饰 single family house

==》1） was banked with 和 was conical  是谓语，不是修饰成分。

        2） E 中的 that of 没有明确指代对象。明显题意说的是dirt 的高度是多少。。

请教，这题句子用“ ，”+ its framework overlaid， and banked...

中间没有用and，讲解说overlaid和banked都是修饰。那这个“，”后的半句话如果不是完整成分的话，整体上看和主句是什么关系。

答案是A

as high as后应该加具体的高度值，而to a height of后面才可加高度范围，此处后面为 three to four feet，为高度范围，杀掉BDE，而C中them无清晰指代对象，剩A

 its framework ... overlaid with ... and banked with

我的理解这是一个独立主格，起状语作用，表house的状态
