OG-SC里面的249
Bluegrass musician Bill Monroe, whose repertory, views on musical collaboration, and vocal style were influential on generations of bluegrass artists, was also an inspiration to many musicians, that included Elvis Presley and Jerry Garcia, whose music differed significantly from his own.

(A) were influential on generations of bluegrass artists, was also an inspiration to many musicians, that included Elvis Presley and Jerry Garcia, whose music differed significantly from

(B) influenced generations of bluegrass artists, also inspired many musicians, including Elvis Presley and Jerry Garcia, whose music differed significantly from

(C) was influential to generations of bluegrass artists, was also inspirational to many musicians, that included Elvis Presley and Jerry Garcia, whose music was different significantly in comparison to

(D) was influential to generations of bluegrass artists, also inspired many musicians, who included Elvis Presley and Jerry Garcia, the music of whomdiffered significantly when compared to

(E) were an influence on generations of bluegrass artists, was also an inspiration to many musicians, including Elvis Presley and Jerry Garcia, whose music was significantly different from that of

OG对E的解释是：In E, the construction different from that of his own is confusing since there is no referent for that. different from his own makes a logical comparison.我觉得that不是指代music么？

258.The British sociologist and activist Barbara Wootton once noted as a humorous example of income maldistribution that the elephant that gave rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo was earning annually exactly what she then earned as director of adult education for London.

(A) that the elephant that gave rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo was earning

(B) that the elephant, giving rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo, had been earning

(C) that there was an elephant giving rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo, and it earned

(D) the elephant that gave rides to children at theWhipsnade Zoo and was earning

       (E)the elephant giving rides to children at theWhipsnade Zoo and that it earning

其中对B的解释是：n B, the structure of noted... that the elephant, giving rides...,had been earning falsely implies that the reader already knows about the elephant- that is, that the existence of this particular elephant is not new information.是什么意思啊/
谢谢各位了。

关于第一题，我认为E中的that指的是“ Elvis Presley and Jerry Garcia”他们的music，如此一来逻辑上就不通顺了。我想问的是B中also inspired many musicians是和 influenced generations of bluegrass artists平行的么？？如果是的话，那also也可以做and的角色么？表示两句并列？

小唯唯

在坛子里搜索的时候，这次搜的是第二题，赫然发现了自己的跟帖……
那就顺便问一下第二题……A中 was earning时态为什么对呀

因为其他的选项不对吧。
作者只是恰巧选择了WAS EARNING 吧
等其他解释

着实令人伤心……

我一开始也纠结在A,B选项，后来觉得吧，这个大象赚的钱和她赚的钱是一个表达收入分配不均的例子，收入分配不均肯定是同时发生的两件事比较，所以时态要保持一致，后面是过去时（earned)，前面也应该是过去时，就把B排除了。
