77. The only way for growers to salvage frozen citrus is
to process them quickly into juice concentrate before
they rot when warmer weather returns.
(A) to process them quickly into juice concentrate
before they rot when warmer weather returns
(B) if they are quickly processed into juice
concentrate before warmer weather returns to
rot them
(C) for them to be processed quickly into juice
concentrate before the fruit rots when warmer
weather returns
(D) if the fruit is quickly processed into juice
concentrate before they rot when warmer
weather returns
(E) to have it quickly processed into juice
concentrate before warmer weather returns and
rots the fruit

答案是E，没有疑问。

我的问题是：如果A选项中，没有"they"的错误，即A变为“to process it quickly into juice concentrate
before they rot when warmer weather returns”可以吗？

“before .. when...”?

谢谢

umm...A中有兩個they =P

A的citrus rots和warmer weather returns的關係沒E明確 -- E明確指出warmer weather會rots the fruit.
而且如果用it在A, it可能會誤指juice concentrate.

应该不可以，因为这是一个用to do不定式做表语的句子 the only way for growers to salvage frozen citrus is to process it ...before they...在they的前面只有growers是复数名词，这样表达会让人误解为在growers rot,而造成指代不清

而答案选用的fruit就是避免了指代不清的问题

我想问的是如果根据it的优先指代的话岂不是应该指way？虽说从逻辑意思上不是，有谁能解释一下。

告诉我萱萱

同求

up一下。我想问个非主流问题，frozen citrus是单复数同形还是这里就是单数代表专有名词？
