In California, a lack of genetic variation in the Argentine ant has allowed the species to spread widely; due to their being so genetically similar to one another, the ants consider all their fellows to be a close relative and thus do not engage in the kind of fierce intercolony struggles that limits the spread of this species in its native Argentina.



A.    due to their being so genetically similar to one another, the ants consider all their fellows to be a close relative and thus do not engage in the kind of fierce intercolony struggles that limits

B.    due to its being so genetically similar the ant considers all its fellows to be a close relative and thus does not engage in the kind of fierce intercolony struggles that limit

C.    because it is so genetically similar, the ant considers all its fellows to be close relatives and thus does not engage in the kind of fierce intercolony struggles that limits

D.    because they are so genetically similar to one another, the ants consider all their fellows to be close relatives and thus do not engage in the kind of fierce intercolony struggles that limit

E.     because of being so genetically similar to one another, the ants consider all their fellows to be a close relative and thus do not engage in the kind of fierce intercolony struggles that limits

答案是 C 我选的是 D

其实，这道题我上网上搜索过，好像是个争议题。更多人倾向选D。我也选的D。主要就是its和their嘛。我觉得都单数了，还怎么similar啊？所以我觉得就是D……

C.    because it is so genetically similar, the ant considers all its fellows to be close relatives and thus does not engage in the kind of fierce intercolony struggles that limits（limits修饰单数） (that 做ant的定语)

D.    because they are so genetically similar to one another, the ants consider all their fellows to be close relatives and thus do not engage in the kind of fierce intercolony struggles that limit （limit修饰复数）（that...是修饰the ants还是 struggles呢。。就不得而知了。。歧义！）

D这个倒是不好说。因为that limit肯定应该是就近原则吧？！ 一般可以不就近的就是可以根据动词单复数判断修饰名词~
