To Josephine Baker, Paris was her home long before it
was fashionable to be an expatriate, and she remained
in France during the Second World War as a performer
and an intelligence agent for the Resistance.
(A) To Josephine Baker, Paris was her home long
before it was fashionable to be an expatriate,
(B) For Josephine Baker, long before it was
fashionable to be an expatriate, Paris was her
home,
(C) Josephine Baker made Paris her home long
before to be an expatriate was fashionable,
(D) Long before it was fashionable to be an
expatriate, Josephine Baker made Paris
her home,
(E) Long before it was fashionable being an
expatriate, Paris was home to Josephine Baker,

答案是D，我觉得是C，

D中将long before提前不就改变原来的意思了么？！

总是对状语位置问题比较疑惑，牛牛们帮帮忙，感激涕零！！！

我当时选的是A, 后来发现这个题的考点是AND前后的对应.C项看似乎对应,但注意,第一句中有MADE 和WAS FASHINABLE两个表谓语的动词, 如果你认为WAS FASHINABLE是修饰EXPATRIATE, 那么WAS应该省略. 希望我的思路正确.

我当时也选的C，但是想想long before是连词吧，连词不能直接跟to do不定式，直接跟不定式的只有疑问代词和疑问副词。我是这么想的哈~

如果是考and前后并列的话，she remained中的she应该可以不要的呀

语法上合理后(没犯run-on错误)，表达一种强调。

那么A错在哪里呢？

A里。。。

To Josephine Baker, Paris was her home (redundant, her is not needed here) also, I feel that To josephine baker leading the sentence makes the format of the sentence kind of awkward. To Josephine Baker, Paris was, and she remained.... structurally wierd sentence.

我觉得OG的答案就是权威，C选项解释“Inversion of the expected word order in to be an expatriate was unfashionable is awkward.”  我觉得意思是在讲it is+adj+to do 比to do +be+adj.表达要好，这种表达更准确，有效，不用太在意语法点。

long before it was fashionable to be an expatriate中的it指代什么？这整个短语修饰的是JB还是Paris?谁能翻译一下？

1. C和D比，D说了时间先，然和接着介绍JB的事情，句子比较平衡。再就是long before 接to be不好
2. long before it was fashionable to be an expatriate中的it指代时间，例如，it took me 3hrs to finish 10 SC questions.
