OG12 SC 48
In 1713, Alexander Pope began his translation of theIliad, a work that, taking him seven years untilcompletion, and that literary critic Samuel Johnson,Pope’s contemporary, pronounced the greatesttranslation in any language.
(A) his translation of the Iliad, a work that, takinghim seven years until completion, and thatliterary critic Samuel Johnson,Pope’s contemporary, pronounced
(B) his translation of the Iliad, a work that took himseven years to complete and that literary critic Samuel Johnson, Pope’s contemporary,pronounced
(C) his translation of the Iliad, a work that had takenseven years to complete and that literary critic Samuel Johnson, Pope’s contemporary,pronounced it as
(D) translating the Iliad, a work that took sevenyears until completion and that literary critic Samuel Johnson, Pope’s contemporary,pronounced it as
(E) translating the Iliad, a work that had taken sevenyears to complete and literary critic SamuelJohnson, Pope’s contemporary, pronounced it

Logical predication; Grammatical construction

Pope’s translation of the Iliad, not the Iliad itself,took seven years to complete. Th e main point ofthe sentence is that Pope began this translation in1713, and every other comment about it must besubordinated to that opening claim, in parallel
relative clauses.

A A work that … requires a verb; without it,the sentence is a fragment.

B Correct. Pope’s translation is described as awork, which is then described concisely in two dependent clauses.

C Th e pronoun it after pronounced is redundant,an ungrammatical reference to a work, which  has already been referenced by the relative pronoun that.

问题：
1。根据OG解释，A: without it, the setence is a fragment .虽然说没有it，句子不完整，但是没有找出来句子的哪个地方缺了这个it,请问it  应该加在哪里呢？
2。C选项说 a work 早已经被相关的代词that 提到了，it 是多余的。可是前文的that 不是应该指那个literary critic吗，实在分不清这里it,that ,work之间的关系，看了之前的各贴也还是不太明白。


请各位NN各种指教帮忙呀><感激不尽感激不尽呀><

1.  基本结构：A work that ......... and that .......  由and连接的两个并列从句。A 选项中，taking him ..... 这个从句没有谓语，所以是个fragment

2. 第二个问题：a work that Samuel pronounced as the greatest translation
