92题：Thelonious Monk, who was a jazz pianist and composer, produced a body of work both rooted in the stride-piano tradition of Willie (The Lion) Smith and Duke Ellington, yet in many ways he stood apart from the mainstream jazz repertory.
(A) Thelonious Monk, who was a jazz pianist and composer, produced a body of work both rooted
(B) Thelonious Monk, the jazz pianist and composer, produced a body of work that was rooted both
(C) Jazz pianist and composer Thelonious Monk, who produced a body of work rooted
(D) Jazz pianist and composer Thelonious Monk produced a body of work that was rooted
(E) Jazz pianist and composer Thelonious Monk produced a body of work rooted both

OG的解释说：The subject of the sentence is Thelonious Monk, and the sentence tells about two things that he did: produced and stood apart. The work he
produced was rooted in the mainstream (stride piano) jazz tradition, yet at the same time, he deviated from this tradition. The use of a relative clause (who was a jazz pianist...) or an appositive (the jazz pianist...) introduces unnecessary wordiness and grammatical complexity. Since only one point is being made about Mobk’s body of work，the appearance of the word both in the clause presenting the claim about Monk's work is deceptive as well as grammatically incorrect.

完全看不懂啊，什么叫only one point is being made, 为什么凭这一点就把both给否定了呢？

未划线部分的“and”是一个陷阱

造成both... and...的假象
