关于OG13 sc 8题的解析

大家好~第一次发帖~希望可以得到大家帮助哈~红字部分是我不大明白的地方...

8. In late 1997, the chambers inside the pyramid of the Pharaoh Menkaure at Giza were closed to visitors for cleaning and repair due to moisture exhaled by tourists, which raised its humidity to such levels so that salt from the stone was crystallizing and fungus was growing on the walls.

(A) due to moisture exhaled by tourists, which raised its humidity to such levels so that salt from the stone was crystallizing

(B) due to moisture that tourists had exhaled, thereby raising its humidity to such levels that salt from the stone would crystallize

(C) because tourists were exhaling moisture, which had raised the humidity within them to levels such that salt from the stone would crystallize

(D) because of moisture that was exhaled by tourists raising the humidity within them to levels so high as to make the salt from the stone crystallize

(E) because moisture exhaled by tourists had raised the humidity within them to such levels that salt from the stone was crystallizing

KEY：A选项  1.which指代的是最相近的那个单词，那么形容的是tourists【？不知道这里解释对不对，我记得初高中的时候说的是which指代的是句子，或者是，前面的那个名词】

       2.its与chambers不符合

                      ？OG中也有提到due to在这里没有准确表达breath和the closing of the museum的意思....这句话的意思我理解的是，关闭museum的原因是moisture但是因为which指代不
                       明，也就原文意思变成了museum的关闭是因为moisture..就没了..反正这句也没怎么理解到，只是觉得which的指代是个问题

B选项，1.due to的话，插入其中会有一点点小误区

In late 1997, the chambers inside the pyramid of the Pharaoh Menkaure at Giza were closed to visitors for cleaning and repair，due to moisture that tourists had exhaled, thereby raising its humidity to such levels that salt from the stone would crystallize and fungus was growing on the walls.

我们将B项代入原文，会发现raising its humidity...会像是在修饰的主句主语the chambers，而非moisture。

        2.Would crystallize与后文fungus was growing 不相匹配

  C 选项，would crystallize与后文fungus was growing 不匹配

  D 选项 ，make the salt from the stone crystallize与后文fungus was growing不匹配

关于OG里面所说的指代问题，真的不知道为什么CD选项中就是指的tourists，E中指的就是chamber，是因为C选项是因为tourists做主语，D选项把tourists做了一个单独的从句，这两个选项读起来感觉有很强调tourists，但是E中仅仅是用by tourists来取代，感觉比较清爽？？？

1.你需要先系统看一下曼哈顿语法
2.提问最好简洁清晰一点...排版看得头很疼...
3.这道题已经讨论过几百个帖子了，建议善用CD自带的搜索功能，把题号输进去

A. which不能指代句子；which一般就近修饰，也有跳跃的情况，这里只能指代tourists
chamber真正关闭的原因，不是moisture, 而是moisture导致了湿度的上升这整件事情
due to moisture不能表达这种因果关系

them 的指代
一般来说作为定语部分的名词，不能被指代 这也是为什么by tourists 不会被them指代
D里面指代这个解释有问题，OG里很多这样语焉不详的解释，不要太当回事
可以去搜搜国外论坛的讨论和CD的讨论，会比较有帮助
