Q4:

Yellow jackets number among the 900 or so species of the world’s social wasps, wasps living in a highly cooperative and organized society where they consist almost entirely of females—the queen and her sterile female workers.

 

1. wasps living in a highly cooperative and organized society where they consist almost entirely of
2. wasps that live in a highly cooperative and organized society consisting almost entirely of
3. which means they live in a highly cooperative and organized society, almost all
4. which means that their society is highly cooperative, organized, and it is almost entirely
5. living in a society that is highly cooperative, organized, and it consists of almost all

我在A/B之间犹豫,最后选的还是A,看到的答案却是B.

我现在分析Rule out A的理由是否因为是they指代不清呢?语法上就近指代organized society,但是语法上应该是yellow jackets..

请各位NN不吝赐教

搜索了一下前人的帖子,明白了..B是一个同位语结构的用法,没有疑问了;)

a中they 指代不明确，如果能用分词优先使用分词，a中where关系副词修饰society也不爽，而且比较不简洁
