在笔记上找到的，好像是tianwan很久以前讨论别的题目的帖子

    

就我愚见，代词的使用应遵守以下原则：对于一个在主从句中均将出现的名词成分，1。从句在前，主句在后，则主从句均可使用代词。2。主句在前，从句在后，只有从句能使用代词，主句必须声明完整意义的名词性成分。就这道题来讲

    

Contrary to the scholarly wisdom of the 1950’s and early
1960’s that predicted the processes of modernization and rationalization (would
gradually undermine it)（从句在前主句在后）, ethnicity is a worldwide phenomenon of increasing importance。这是正确的，不用带词叫convoluted

    

It is a worldwide phenomenon of increasing importance(主句在前从句在后), contrary to the
scholarly wisdom of the 1950’s and early 1960’s that predicted the processes of
modernization and rationalization would gradually undermine ethnicity. 这就错了。

    

更好的例子是(引用新东方国外部猛将朱江老师的话）：:

    

Bcause he is sick, Tony did not come to school.

    

Because Tony is sick, he did not come to school.

    

He did not come to school, because Tong is sick. （X）

    

Tony did not come to school, because he is sick.

    

大家自己体味一下吧。

   那请问mymengming版主．．２６１　ＯＧＴＨ　中是不是也有类似的问题呢？？？

261. Being a United States citizen since 1988 and born in Calcutta in 1940. author Bharati Mukherjee has lived in England and Canada, and first came to the United States in 1961 to study at the Iowa Writers' Workshop.
(A) Being a United States citizen since 1988 and born in Calcutta in 1940, author Bharati Mukherjee has
(B) Having been a United States citizen since 1988, she was born in Calcutta in 1940; author Bharati Mukherjee
(C) Born in Calcutta in 1940, author Bharati Mukherjee became a United States citizen in 1988; she has
(D) Being born in Calcutta in 1940 and having been a United States citizen since 1988, author Bharati Mukherjee
(E) Having been born in Calcutta in 1940 and being a United States citizen since 1988, author Bharati Mukherjee

选项Ｂ，是不是因为she在前，所以有问题？？？？？

无限感激啊。。看了很多的帖子都没有结果。。。。 

如果不是因为这个问题，那Ｂ为什么错？？？？？？

C is best. The first clause presents its information clearly and in logical sequence. The use of a semicolon to set apart the remaining information further assists the clarity of the sentence. In A, the phrase Being... and born violates parallelism and oddly presents its information in reverse chronological order. Choice B illogically suggests that upon her birth in 1940, Mukherjee had already been a United States citizen since 1988. In D and E, the use of progressive forms (Being born, having been, Having been born, and being) implies continuous action, a notion that is not appropriate to the facts being presented. Also, these forms do not establish a logical time sequence, suggesting, for example, that Mukherjee had been a United States citizen before she lived in England and Canada and first came to the United States.

这题的关键是前后两个"their"指代不一致，前者指代"women"，后者却指代"men"，使整句的意思发生歧义，故A选项错。

我记得GMAT中同一代词的指代要求前后一致，这是基本原则。这也是我百思不得其解OG10-60中'IT"指代不一致的原因。

一点浅见，与大家斟酌！

我觉得第二个their指的仍然是women scientists,而且始终是women scientists.

所以就连their female counterparts 都是错的

E选项中,为什么要说have had to work,而不是直接说have to work?

有点晕头了,不知道have had to 有什么意思~谢谢了!!

因为有连词，but，存在，their 可以前后指代不一致，
参考酒农这道题

In an effort to reduce their inventories, Italian vintners have cut prices; their wines have been priced to sell, and they are.

(A) have been priced to sell, and they are

(B) are priced to sell, and they have

(C) are priced to sell, and they do

(D) are being priced to sell, and have（C）

(E) had been priced to sell, and they have

their 指代 Italian vintners, they 指代 wines

不是因为有连词，而是因为有分号。
且一个句子中their 和they 这种可以指代不同的。

selinalover

their的指代有没有歧义呢？
