To Josephine Baker, Paris was her home long before it was fashionable to be an expatriate, and she remained in France during the Second World War as a performer and an intelligence agent for the Resistance.
(A) To Josephine Baker, Paris was her home long before it was fashionable to be an expatriate,
(B) For Josephine Baker, long before it was fashionable to be an expatriate, Paris was her home,
(C) Josephine Baker made Paris her home long before to be an expatriate was fashionable,
(D) Long before it was fashionable to be an expatriate, Josephine Baker made Paris her home,
(E) Long before it was fashionable being an expatriate, Paris was home to Josephine Baker,

我想问的是,我总觉得DE选项long before...写在整个句子最前面感觉像修饰整个句子(即修饰made和remained两句话),所以抛弃D选了C,求大牛指点!
还有OG对C的解释Inversion of the expected word order in to be an expatriate was unfashionable is awkward.一直不是很理解,看了前人的帖子还是没有领悟,求指点!

个人浅见:
Long before...在句首,但后面是形式主语结构:it was fashinable to be an expatriate 所以没有修饰问题了
C选项OG的解释是说,把 it was fashinable to be expatriate 写成 to be an expatiate was fashionable 很awkward~ 也就是说这种结构最好是形式主语,才比较符合他们的表达习惯~

这样的结构更偏好~~其实C在语法上也没有错的,只是D更好~~
至于你说的那个修饰,(其实我没明白你的疑惑在哪里)因为这个句子意思很清楚,不容易引起歧义~

其实我就是纠结long...一句能不能修饰整个句子,也就是修饰made和remained两句话,因为我觉得long...一句修饰remained那句话逻辑上不太对,所以才觉得有问题的

expatriate n.移居国外者  it是形式主语指代to be an expatriate,不是指代Paris......
Paris was fashionable to be an expatriate.这意思也太ridiculous! 上面楼层有说错的........

其实我认为it作形式主语是指代后面的that或to be等结构的。
这也正是it的作用啊,避免头重脚轻。

中学英语老师说的。
结果我在千行笔记里看这个这个解释:
it做形式主语的时候不指代任何东西(这个知识点是新的!我之前以为会指代to do结构)

THE ONLY PRONOUNS ON THE GMAT THAT DON'T HAVE TO STAND FOR NOUNS:


It + description+ that +complete sentence (independent clause)
It + description+ to +verb (infinitive)
It + (TOBE verb) + NOUN t做形式主语的时候不指代任何东西(这个知识点是新的!我之前以为会指代to do结构)

THE ONLY PRONOUNS ON THE GMAT THAT DON'T HAVE TO STAND FOR NOUNS:


It + description+ that +complete sentence (independent clause)
It + description+ to +verb (infinitive)
It + (TOBE verb) + NOUN + that/who + verb【强调句】

these "it"s DO NOT have to stand for nouns.


=====》我个人其实不很赞同。
