选3。
平行结构：要省全省，要全都全。
1）as well as 应该是and；pass laws应该是 to pass laws
2）pass =》to pass

可是答案是1啊,我还说1的them指带不明,断然否顶了它,结果却是1

那位再帮忙解释解释？

可能是根据意思来的吧
你看前面两个都是立法，后面的是废止

猫猫头

them的指代还可以吧
因为这个动作是voters发出的
所以them是指最近的那个laws
如果选3的话，可能它所要表示的意思就不是两个极端（立法和废法）那么明确了

[em19]1是对的。
平行结构中的动宾平行，一般宾语是不同的，所以用动宾结构平行表述。若宾语相同，则一般并列动词，而不并列动宾（有重复之嫌）。所以三中的表述不理想，改为allows voters to propose ,pass and repeal laws会更好些。
与之相比，1的表述是规范的。allows voters to propose and pass laws, as well as to repeal them 。一方面是表达两个相反的意思，所以把propose,pass和repeal分开；另一方面，用them代替laws避免了重复。

同意LUCYLU的解释。
YMTDH，你能否把题号写明？谢谢！
