[求助]问一道PREP题

chongxun

Unlike most severance packages, which require workers to stay until the last day scheduled to

collect, workers at the automobile company are eligible for its severance package even if they

find a new job before they are terminated.

选项：

(E) the last day that they are scheduled to collect, the automobile company's severance

package is available to workers 

(E) are scheduled to collect的主语只能是packages，但they是指代workers，出现指代错误。

另一种看法:从逻辑上 are scheduled to collect 修饰的是 day,而原句中修饰的是 they(works)不

符合逻辑

问题：为什么说are scheduled to collect的主语只能是packages呢？一个句子中出现they这样的代词，只能指代整个句子的主语，而不能指代句子中任何其他的成分吗？

多谢！

我的理解：that定语从句修饰the last day，用正常语序来表述该定语从句就变成了they(workers) are scheduled to collect the last day，逻辑意思错。
