正确答案选D
我有一点不明白，就是from...to...结构,应该是平行的吧。为什么这个正确选项中没有涉及到这一点？
求大家解答。谢谢!

关于from...to...的平行问题，og59题感觉也有点问题。这题选A
平行不是应该1对1的么，这里怎么是computers，spy satellites和dishwashers在平行呢？
我看到以前的帖子都没有讨论这个问题，所以提出来，听听NN们的看法。
59. After suffering $2 billion in losses and 25,000 layoffs, the nation’s semiconductor industry, which makes chips that run everything from computers and spy satellites to dishwashers, appears to have made a long-awaited recovery.
(A) computers and spy satellites to dishwashers, appears to have
(B) computers, spy satellites, and dishwashers, appears having
(C) computers, spy satellites, and dishwashers, appears that it has
(D) computers and spy satellites to dishwashers, appears that it has
(E) computers and spy satellites as well as dishwashers, appears to have

这里的to不是from to的平行

是表示目的


仔细再看看句意

一切都应该照着句意来，平行结构脱离了句意就没有任何意义了不是吗。 第二个栗子里，computers AND spy satellites是一个整体呀，同属于高科技有没有，后面的洗碗机是小东西一下low掉了有没有。就算你不用语法结构from...to做题，这题后面的appears后面的差异点一样可以让你迅速排除BCD留下A和E。

你再看看这题：

Despite its attractiveness, investing abroad can still pose big risks, ranging from the potential for political instability in some countries to the shortage of regulations to protect investors and a serious lack of information about investments in others.

(A) to the shortage of regulations to protect investors and a serious lack of information about investments in others

(B) to the shortage of regulations to protect investors and in others a serious lack of information about investments

(C) and the shortage of regulations to protect investors and a serious lack of information about investments in others

(D) and the shortage of regulations to protect investors to a serious lack of information about investments in others

(E) to the shortage of regulations to protect investors in others and a serious lack of information about investments

这题到底是用to还是and，到底是from A and B to C还是from A to B and C是根据句意来的。没有100%成立的语法结构，一切都按照句意来。就像having和being这种表达方法的【本身】是没有错的，通常作为错误选项出现只是因为它们被放错了地方罢了。

谢谢版主的精彩解答。
确实，这里是turn away from为一个整体，做伴随。而后面的to do是修饰这个动作的目的。
看来以后用平行的时候出现这种无法运用的时候，还是不要纠结在这上，利用其他来排除

谢谢NN的精彩解达。
我这题有疑问主要是因为我把平行看的太死了，觉得就只是完全形式数量上的对应，所以挺困惑的。
这么说来，语义还是优于平行，平行是为语义服务的。
以后看平行适用时，还应该看这个平行结构到底适不适用于这个句意。
受教了哈!
