43. Laos has a land area about the same as Great Britain but only four million in population, where many are members of hill tribes ensconced in the virtually inaccessible mountain valleys of the north. (A) about the same as Great Britain but only four million in population, where many (B) of about the same size as Great Britain is, but in Laos there is a population of only four million, and many (C) that is about the same size as Great Britain’s land area, but in Laos with a population of only four million people, many of them (D) comparable to the size of Great Britain, but only four million in population, and many (E) comparable to that of Great Britain but a population of only four million people, many of whom
选E,没问题。
暂且不论其他错误,单单想问的是在这里whom和选项C中的them的用法有什么区别? OG对C的解释为:C The reference of them is unclear and the expression is generally awkward. 为什么whom指代people就对了,而用them就不可以。。
单单想问的是在这里whom和选项C中的them的用法有什么区别? 有。whom引导从句,many of them要么新起一句句子,要么引导独立主格或同位语。成分不同,例: (1)CD has a huge number of members,many of them struggle for futher study.明显可以看出其一山不容二虎的主语过多错误 若改成如下可接受: (2)CD has a huge number of members,many of whom struggle for futher study.此时逗号后是一句从句,符合语法规则。

关于them在这句话中的指代问题,还有一个帖子也在讨论http://forum.chasedream.com/GMAT_SC/thread-479747-1-1.html?userid=-1&extparms=ThreadCatalogID%3d0%26page%3d1 总结一下,大家对于them在此的指代问题 解释有以下几种: 1、“in Laos with a population of four million people”是一个介词短语,可以忽略,因此them无所指代 2、them 和it相似,只能指代前面整个句子的主语,而不能指代宾语,因此这里知道“Laos”,造成逻辑错误
