一、135. (31742-!-item-!-188;#058&004710)

At one time, the majestic American chestnut was so prevalent that it was said a squirrel could jump

from tree to tree without once touching the ground between New York State and Georgia.

(A) so prevalent that it was said a squirrel could

(B) so prevalent that a squirrel was said that it could

(C) so prevalent for a squirrel to be said to be able to

(D) prevalent enough that it was said a squirrel could  (E) prevalent enough for a squirrel to be said to be able to

正确选项是A，但在红字部分是一个that引导的表结果的从句，it 是形式主语，那请问it was said后面的that省略没有错误吗？


二、在gmat中while有做conj表达然而（对比的意思）吗
比如prep2007-111

111. (30237-!-item-!-188;#058&004708)

Hans Christian Andersen wrote fairy tales, which have been some of the most frequently translated

works in literary history, while he wrote plays, novels, poems, and travel books, as well as several

autobiographies, which remained almost unknown outside his native Denmark.

translated works in literary history, while he wrote plays, novels, poems, and travel books, as well

as several autobiographies, which remained

(B) Hans Christian Andersen wrote fairy tales, which, while among the most frequently translated

works in literary history, his plays, novels, poems, and travel books, as well as several

autobiographies remain

(C) Even as Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales have been among the most frequently translated

works in literary history, still his plays, novels, poems, and travel books, as well as several

autobiographies, remain

(D) Unlike the fairy tales written by Hans Christian Andersen, which are some of the most frequently

translated works in literary history, he wrote plays, novels, poems, and travel books, as well as

several autobiographies, which remained

(E) Although Hans Christian Andersen wrote fairy tales that are among the most frequently

translated works in literary history, his plays, novels, poems, and travel books, as well as several

正确选项是E

A选项除了用which引导非限定性定语从句不恰当，还有while在剧中表达“在……时期”的意思不符合逻辑，但是如果把while理解为然而就是逻辑通顺的啊？ 可以这样理解吗？
