57. Many of the earliest known images of Hindu deities in India date from the time of the Kushan Empire, fashioned either from the spotted sandstone of Mathura or Gandharan grey schist.

(A) Empire, fashioned either from the spotted sandstone of Mathura or

(B) Empire, fashioned from either the spotted sandstone of Mathura or from

(C) Empire, either fashioned from the spotted sandstone of Mathura or

(D) Empire and either fashioned from the spotted sandstone of Mathura or from

(E) Empire and were fashioned either from the spotted sandstone of Mathura or from

从Parallelism的角度来看(Either...or...), 这道题选择E是没什么问题的，并且没什么别的可能选项。但是date 和 were  fashioned 明显不是一个时态的，请教英文是可以这么表达的么？谢谢

一个句子当然可以有不同的时态了。前面的date表示的一个客观陈述的时候，要用一般现在，后面的were是讲的过去发生的，所以要用过去喽。
