OG12-59 求指点

danielleydd

59.The Olympic Games helped to keep peace among the pugnacious states of the Greek world in that a sacred truce was proclaimed during the festival's month.

(A)world in that a sacred truce was proclaimed during the festival's month
(B)world, proclaiming a sacred truce during the festival's month
(C)world when they proclaimed a sacred truce for the festival month
(D) world, for a sacred truce was proclaimed during the month of the festival
(E)world by proclamation of a sacred truce that was for the month of the festival


正确答案是D
关于OG的解释，我有几点看不懂，觉得写的很含糊，再次请教

A  In that is stilted and overly formal. 这该怎么看，因为句意和语法上都是对的，是不是以后只要看到in that就认为错呢？
D  Correct. In this sentence, the conjunction for joins the two clauses correctly and economically. 什么时候该理解for可以用作连词呢？

E Wordy and awkward construction.我感觉E是曲解句意了，但不懂这里说的wordy & awkward在哪里？

关于E，是因为用到了proclamation的名词（本可以用动词简洁表达），和选项中的that was 有些多余
关于 in that， 个人认为不是所有的in that 全错，在这道题中如果遇到更简洁的for，使得in that 成为了一个考点

希望上一道题的讨论对LZ有帮助～

是不是说应该用by proclaiming啊？我是觉得在表示 通过一种方法时，by后面一定是doing，with才加名词呢
对么
