OG 11排除B的理由

mathfin9

11. Based on accounts of various ancient writers, scholars have painted a sketchy picture of the activities of an all-female cult that, perhaps as early as the sixth century B.C., worshipped a goddess known in Latin as Bona Dea, "the good goddess."

(A)  Based on accounts of various ancient writers

(B)  Basing it on various ancient writers' accounts

(C)  With accounts of various ancient writers used for a basis

(D)  By the accounts of various ancient writers they used

E）Using accounts of various ancient writer

From ETS:Choice B is awkward and impre­cise in that the referent for the pronoun it is not immediately clear.

我的问题是，是不是ETS 认为代词指代的只能是前文出现的，而不能指代后文出现的，比如picture...

it 应该可以指代后面的，但是在这里若it指代picture的化，逻辑意思上说不通，不能既“base picture",又“paint picture".

请NN门指点！

我不N,说说我的理解.

IT是绝对可以指代后面的,OG题目有这样的例子.

所以,我做这道题目是主要是从意思上理解句子,然后用逻辑来排除错误选择.

these scholars have painted a sketchy picture of the activities 这个动作是以 accounts of various ancient writers 为基础的，从逻辑上，这里的it应该是指后面的整个句子，从语法上却不可以。

我觉得这里纯粹就是意思问题，为什么非要是base动作，而不能是base picture呢？
