1、是可以用的，但相比较来讲，括号中的表达更清晰、更好。of 后直接跟要修饰的名词，后面的from修饰这个名词。
2、在澳大利亚成为澳大利亚之前。
3、不购买
4、it指代错误。it指代的是protein，而C中的protein是有限定的，用了in rice ，而D中的直接就用rice限定。这说名protein是特制大米中的蛋白的。

4.按你的解释我明白了，可OG的解释是In C and D, the comparative structure higher in quality than it is in wheat absurdly suggests that rice protein contains wheat.
rice protein contains wheat.  是大米蛋白包含小麦吗？还是小麦包含大米蛋白？

junarry:sediments from the Baltic Sea 在原句中更好，它准确的表达了被测试sediments是从Baltic Sea 中取出来的意思。如果还没有被取出来就没办法测试。：〉

4.按tongxun的解释我理解了，可OG的解释是In C and D, the comparative structure higher in quality than it is in wheat absurdly suggests that rice protein contains wheat.
rice protein contains wheat. 是大米蛋白包含小麦吗？还是小麦包含大米蛋白？
