求教两道语法题。。

The colorization of black-and-white films by computers is defended by those who own the film rights, for the process can mean increased revenues for them; many others in the film industry, however, contend that the technique degrades major works of art, which they liken to putting lipstick on a Greek statue.
(A) which they liken to putting lipstick on a Greek statue
(B) which they liken to a Greek statue with lipstick put on it
(C) which they liken to lipstick put on a Greek statue
(D) likening it to a Greek statue with lipstick put on it（E）
(E) likening it to putting lipstick on a Greek statue
这里IT到底指代什么东西啊，我看不出来诶。。谁教我一下

The physical structure of the human eye enables it to sense light of wavelengths up to 0.0005 millimeters; infrared radiation, however, is invisible because its wavelength—0.1 millimeters—is too long to be registered by the eye.
(A) infrared radiation, however, is invisible because its wavelength—0.1 millimeters—is too long to be registered by the eye
(B) however, the wavelength of infrared radiation—0.1 millimeters—is too long to be registered by the eye making it invisible
(C) infrared radiation, however, is invisible because its wavelength—0.1 millimeters—is too long for the eye to register it
(D) however, because the wavelength of infrared radiation is 0.1 millimeters, it is too long for the eye to register and thus invisible（A）
(E) however, infrared radiation has a wavelength of 0.1 millimeters that is too long for the eye to register, thus making it invisible
这题为什么选A，不能选C，C又是主动语态，it指代infrared radiation，但是为什么C不对呢？

谢谢啦。。

这两道题目的确挺难的，尤其第二题尝试解释一下吧，第一题的it代指的前面那句话，which不能代指一句话的，排除ABC而D项把动作比作一个名词，不合理，就剩下E了。


第二题，我觉得C的问题在于too...to...的结构使用。一般而言，在使用too...to...结构的时候，往往是to do sth.的主语和前面的一致，如A太什么什么而不能干什么。这样，选C的话，意思就是红外线不可见，因为红外线的波长太长而不能看到红外线。


不知道有没有帮到楼主。

谢谢啦，我还想问一下，第一题，D项怎么是把哪个动作比作名词啦？我找不到诶。。。

建议你那个笔在纸上写一下，对你有帮助，你就能发现了。

我说一下对第二题的解释吧。首先，明确一些，eyes所sense（或者说register）的是light，而不是波长，也就是说，length是不能做这个动词的宾语的。所以排除BDE。实际上C也可以排除的。因为is too long to...的主语就是its length是不对的。同时，即使its length可以作为it too long to register的宾语，C选项也有瑕疵，呢就是register后的it是多余的。

这个解释清楚，谢谢啦。。
