请教版主，老prep 1的 13题

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.

 

(A) the last day scheduled to collect, workers at the automobile company are eligible for its severance package

(B) the last day they are scheduled to collect, workers are eligible for the automobile company's severance package

(C) their last scheduled day to collect, the automobile company offers its severance package to workers

(D) their last scheduled day in order to collect, the automobile company's severance package is available to workers

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

知道Unlike 比较的对象要对等，所以可以排除a~c。但是就是在D，E上非常模糊。相关的解释也看过了，还是不能从逻辑以上理解 their last scheduled day in order to collect 和 the last day that they are scheduled to collect的区别。

BTW, 一看是觉得E选项wordy，但是仔细看一下并不wordy。请求版主给解释一下。

E选项估计是they 用的不很清楚 。、、、

Brandon16

各人觉得从逻辑上判断they是指代workers，没有歧义吧

E里面读起来感觉collect的是the last day，而不是packages,所以to collect的位置不对.
the last day they are scheduled不及their last scheduled day来得简单，所以还是wordy的.they和their都是指workers

恩，版主这么一说，再去读读确实有这种感觉了。谢谢版主。

版主我可不可以这样去理解，that 引导限制性定语从句这能紧跟所修饰的词后面，因此在这里that thay are……修饰的是day
