B中用or错。 因为or要么用在否定句中，要么表示选择关系（包括程度不同）。否定句必须有否定词：no, not。seldom 只是有否定意思的词并不是否定词，所以不是否定句这里应该用and。

C,E 没有谓语动词，句子结构不完整，也错

D 有3个错误：The Erie Canal was seldom more than 40 feet wide or 12 feet deep and it ran 363 miles across the rugged wilderness of upstate New York, which connected

1. was seldom ...and it ran 构成runing sentence; 2. or 错；3. which 从句修饰 NewYork 错：

所以我选A

都是那来的理论？能否详细解释？偶孤陋寡闻了。

感觉有点莫名其妙。

svo and svo. and前面comma都没有当然是run-on，有错吗？

这是破折号用法摘自"How to prepare for the California state university writing proficiency exams")

Dash:

  The main function of the dash, like parentheses, is to enclose emphasized information within a sentence. Dashes are more forceful and should be used sparingly, since they high-light the ideas and items they enclose.

Use dashes to indicate hesitation, or a sudden break in thought or sentence structure, or to set off appositives and other explantory or parenthetical elments. The dash adds emphasis to any part of a sentence that can be separated from the rest of the sentence.

Example: The skydriver--in spite of his broken leg--set a new record for endurance.

  Some specific uses of the dash follow:

  1. To interrupt continuity of prose

Example:  "I really can't tolerate--Well, never mind."

2. To emphasize appositives

Example: The items she had asked for in the new car--tape deck,mileage computer, stick shift--were all included.

3. To set off phrases or clauses containing commas.

   When a modifier itself contains commas, dashs can make its boundaries clear.

Example: General Motors--which has manufactured tanks, cannons, and mobile cranes--has always been far more than an automobile assembler.

4. To set off parenthetical elements

Example: The child was sitting--actually sprawling--at his desk.

According to the definition above, I support "B",because "dash" here expresses emphasis,对应 only.

我觉得4应该选B啊，have been和have been也平行啊

dreamerps

39T E 一是没谓语，二是run-on

oceanalma

看了很久很久，也没有看出来到底a什么地方没有平行了，有的说seoldom....but runing要平行，有的说runing......与the Erie Canal 后面的要平行，（也不知道后面到那里）

脑袋完全不转了，谁敲一下
