求问OG 12 67这个题目怎么分析啊··一上来看到就傻了啊

67. Affording strategic proximity to the Strait of Gibraltar, Morocco was also of interest to the French throughout the first half of the twentieth century because they assumed that if they did not hold it, their grip on Algeria was always insecure.
(A) if they did not hold it, their grip on Algeria was always insecure
(B) without it their grip on Algeria would never be secure
(C) their grip on Algeria was not ever secure if they did not hold it
(D) without that, they could never be secure about their grip on Algeria
(E) never would their grip on Algeria be secure if they did not hold it

怎么有思路的呢？一看上去根本不知道哪个选项可以排除啊T T，求各位帮忙看一下啊

求问答案B中的it难道不会引起Strait of Gibraltar和Morocco 的歧义吗，
还有看到一个解释说：it指代不明可以排除掉CE。 由于在CE两项之中Algeria出现在it之前，所以会有Morocco和Algeria的指代不明问题。
我想问是不是代词的指代只能向前指代出现过的名词呢

单调唱

(B) without it their grip on Algeria would never be secure
(C) their grip on Algeria was not ever secure if they did not hold it
(D) without that, they could never be secure about their grip on Algeria
(E) never would their grip on Algeria be secure if they did not hold it

绝对错误排除：由歧义，很快排除C,E。A中was错误，条件句，用would表示一种将来的可能性。
B,D如果区分不了，直接读，assume that without that本身就很awkward。而且前面franch也是用it指代而不是that。that不能单独指代前面出现的名词

it是就近指代的，B中不会有修饰歧义。

这个我之前没仔细看，解释错了。it本身就是指代Morocco。


看清楚本题逻辑意思~讲摩洛哥因为担负着法国接近G海峡的战略角色，摩洛哥也是法国的兴趣所在，失去了对摩洛哥的控制....
