6. From the earliest days of the tribe，kinship determined the way in which the Ojibwa society organized its labor provided access to its resources，and defined rights and obligations involved in the distribution and consumption of those resources．
(A)  and defined rights and obligations involved in the distribution and consumption of those resources
(B)defining rights and obligations involved in their distribution and consumption
(C)  and defined rights and obligations as they were involved in its distribution and consumption
(D)  whose rights and obligations were defined in their distribution and consumption
(E) the distribution and consumption of them defined by rights and obligations

Ans:A

C  As they were is wordy and imprecise；its has no clear referent．
請問為何會說指代不清呢？？
這題A的those是指？？

iamsean

C的its语法上代指Ojibwa society但逻辑上应该指resources

A的those是those resources，因为句中有多个复数名词，所以为了避免指代不清就补出了resources

umm..."labor"跟"provided"是有一個comma...
