正确答案是选C，可是C中的it是不是指代错误阿？

记得之前看语法复习的时候，有文章提到过，it指代距离他最近的单数名词，如果最近的那个不是，就是指代错误了。

照这个道理，it 应该是指代前面最近的the telephone,可是这样逻辑就错了，所以我一下就把c给排除了。

有没有牛牛能帮我解释一下啊，这大春节的，困惑死了。。。

LZ我的建议是:"就近指代"不是一条原则,指代问题还是以"逻辑含义"为判断正确与否关键,再进而判断是否有歧义等问题.

就PREP来说,虽然很多题目符合所谓的"就近指代原则",但我认为只是凑巧而已,形式上不符合"就近指代"而实质"逻辑含义"指代正确而正确的比比皆是.

所以LZ不要以就近指代为原则来排除选项,一则自己会不断在就近指代中迷茫困惑,二则很多时候极大可能会导致误选.
