Prep189 Less successful...正确选项求解

WindyMM

这题根据平行还是可以选对的，但是有个问题求教：
Less successful...是倒装句吗？为什么之后不需要and等连词来连接后面两个完整句子呢，不会成为run-on sentence吗？

189. (OG12-123)

She was less successful after she had emigrated to New York compared to her native Germany, photographer Lotte Jacobi nevertheless earned a small group of discerning admirers, and her photographs were eventually exhibited in prestigious galleries across the United States.

A.       She was less successful after she had emigrated to New York compared to

B.       Being less successful after she had emigrated to New York as compared to

C.       Less successful after she emigrated to New York than she had been in

D.       Although she was less successful after emigrating to New York when compared to   

E.        She had been less successful after emigrating to New York than in

选项分析：

A．  Less successful… anticipates than rather than compared to… ; a comma is insufficient to join two independent clauses into a single sentence.

B．  As compare to is an incorrect way to complete the comparison introduced by less; being… is unnecessarily wordy and awkward.

C．  Correct.

D．  When compared to is an incorrect phrase to complete the comparison introduced by less.

E． A comma is insufficient to join two independent clauses into a single sentence; past-perfect tense is misleading, since it refers to J’s experience in New York, which in fact followed her experience in Germany.

仔细看了语法笔记里面的解释，The phrase less successful anticipates the conclusion of the comparison with the phrase than… . 应该是前面变成了定语，修饰后面的主句，不存在前后两个句子的关系了
