还是不明白：

Architects and stonemasons是什么语法成分，是maya的同位语吗，怎么觉得同位语不应该这么用啊？

是同位语，只不过放在主语的前面，跟我们平时看到的不一样

请问楼主
1. A, B, and D illogically suggest that the
            palace and temple clusters were architects and stonemasons. For the modification to be logical. Architects and stonemasons must immediately precede the Maya, the noun phrase it is meant to modify.
    

    

    3.?? E is awkwardly phrased and produces a sentence fragment,?? because the appositive noun phrase Architects and stonemasons cannot serve as the subject of were the Maya.
        以偏代全.

这些解释从哪里来哈？

JJUUHHUU

前置的同位语吧。

Again from Gmatclub:

C has to be the correct answer.

'Architects and stonemasons' is a modifier. The only ones that could be remotely close would be C and E.

Move it around a bit and you can see it clearer.

(C) the maya, [architects and stonemasons], built the huge palace and the temple clusters without the benifit of animal transport or the wheel

Since the modifier is placed in front the first thing after the comma should be what its modifying.
