Gone are the sharp edges and jutting planes of styles from former eras; instead, designers of everything from cars to computer monitors have adopted a cornerless style of smooth surfaces and curves that is more ergonomic, conforming to the shape of the body rather than flaunting shape for its own sake.

 

(A) more ergonomic, conforming to the shape of the body rather than flaunting shape

(B) more ergonomic, conformed to the body's shape and not to flaunting shape

(C) ergonomic, more conformed to the shape of the body and not to shape flaunted

(D) ergonomic, conforming more to the body's shape rather than shape flaunted

(E) ergonomic, conforming more to the shape of the body than flaunting shape

答案是a.

conforming 和flaunting 可以修饰adj ergonomic吗?没有见过这种用法阿

Here is my understanding, please comments:

"conforming" is used to modify "designers", but not "ergonomic
in B, "conformed" is wrong, body's shape is not good
in C, like B
in D, not in parallel
in E, should be rather than, "more" should modify "ergonomic"

conforming 和 flaunting 应该是表示前面整句话的影响把，designer adopt了一种style,使得其能更conform to body而不是flaunt

谢谢ls的们~~ 看了你们的解释，再回头看一下，明白多了~~

我弱弱的问一下，A选项中的comforming to the shape与后面的flaunting shape中，为什么后面的shape前面没有加定冠词the？加上是不是更好，更平行？

还是这种小问题可以忽略不计？

the shape of the body 因为是限定性修饰的所以用 the
flaunting shape for its own sake 第二个 shape 是非限定性修饰，不能用 the

在知道flaunting这个单词意思之前，

感觉这道题还是挺狡猾的，

什么意思？没明白。
