[讨论]求助一道SC题，怎么想都不理解。

For many people, household labor remains demanding even if able to afford household appliances their grandparents would find a miracle.

A) 如题

B) despite being able to afford household appliances their grandparents would find a miracle.

C) even if they can afford household appliances their grandparents would have found miraculous.

D) although they could afford household appliances their grandparents would find miraculous.

E) even if they are able to afford household appliances which would have been a miracle to their grandparents.

白勇上给的答案是C，但是根据他以前说的，be able to和can一个表示有能力，一个表示可能性，不能互换。另外，说复数名词household appliances与单数名词a miracle不能搭配。但是我认为这两个名词搭配可以说通，就是这些用具对gp来说是个一个奇迹，反而这些用具对gp来说是一堆奇迹(miracles)不通顺。所以我认为E也可以，希望NN解答。

E不行把，which指代不明阿。

which应该就近修饰 household appliances阿.

同上

WHICH就近指带

应该是逻辑意思

你自己也说了E的意思是这些东西是奇迹，逻辑意思不对

应该是老人们觉得这些东西是奇迹，所以用find sth adj

至于be able to 和can ，基本不能当作判断依据。很多反例的。个人感觉用be able to正确的地方都可以用can, 但有时用can表示可能性的时候不能用be able to

在GMAT中，which不可以修饰限制性定语从句，只有that可以。也就是说，遇到which引导定语从句，前面没有逗号则100％错

D项时态错 B项despite of being 错 A项没有be  只有选C了   矮子里面挑大个
