刚到家，做道题练连手。不是nn，错了大家指正啊。
选D
A  carry as many as... 和cost less， 应该语意有转折，但用and无法表现。
B  minivan 后面没有谓语动词，句子不完整。
c 同样转折意味没有，且they 开始另一个完整的句子， 中间却没有连接词。
e 问题同上。前面主句，minivans ..the cost is lower, 不完整， and they 没有转折意味。

你觉得A这个怎么样？

同意D，虽然修饰叠加，但是看起来是最好的一个。后面从cost开始是平行结构

事实上这个答案是A，有人说这个题目的风格在OG里面是很常见的啊。

我也觉得逻辑上选D比较好
不过D重心转移了

E.    so that its cargo of 750000 gallons leaked into the ocean, and they were polluting.
C
不过这道也是因为逻辑意思所以重心转移的
A答案哪来的啊

仔细看了下 好像是A比较好。。。

根据OG对修饰有效性的定义：修饰名词的成分必须合理有效地分布在被修饰对象前后。
根据prep笔记，修饰名词比较有效的结构是：分词结构，名词，修饰成分1，修饰成分2。。。。
这就是D错误的原因，不知道对不对。

我的思路楼主看对不对啊~
对于A来说
Minivans 主语
carry as many as seven passengers 修饰主语，说明minivans的特性（这里不能和sport vehicles比，赛车能坐7个人？）
and,这里很多人说不必要and，但是and实际上是为了引出后面的第二层次意思——开始对比
compared with most sport utility vehicles, 不能删掉，也不能提前（楼上说的分词结构提前不能适用）因为要引出下面的对比。
（Minivans）cost less, get better gas mileage, allow passengers to get in and out more easily, and have a smoother ride. 一个完美的平行结构。
对于D来说：
Minivans, carrying as many as seven passengers, compared with most sport utility vehicles, cost less, get better gas mileage, allow passengers to get in and out more easily, and have a smoother ride.
大问题是，compared到底修饰谁？我觉得修饰passengers也可以啊，和原句意思不符。是错的原因
