[求助]关于OG10-186有歧义？？？

hairicanye

186. Judge Bonham denied a motion to allow members of the jury to go home at the end of each day instead of to confine them to a hotel.

(A)  to allow members of the jury to go home at the end of each day instead of to confine them to

(B)  that would have allowed members of the jury to go home at the end of each day instead of confined to

(C)  under which members of the jury are allowed to go home at the end of each day instead of confining them in

(D)  that would allow members of the jury to go home at the end of each day rather than confinement in

(E)   to allow members of the jury to go home at the end of each day rather than be con­fined to

E

这里有一个问题，OG上解释说这里的to confine to的部分是同...jury to go home 相平行，共同修饰motion

但我认为这里是有歧义的，如果将A中的to allow members ...理解为Judge Bonham denied a motion 的目的做宾语补足语的话，那

么A就可以理

解为“JB否定了这个motion是为了让人们能回家，而不是为了将他们集中在宾馆”，如是理解的话，A就是正确选项了，希望

大家看看

另外，在做这道题的时候，因为我们平时是很少见到to do后置定语修饰名词（motion）的，所以这里很容易认为是目的状

语，则对于题的理

解就完全错了，那我们应该怎么避免如上的问题？ 

希望大家都来讨论，open to discuss！！！
