这一题中的and后面有了个it不构成run-on错误嘛？但是我看有的题目在一个连词，比如but加上it 指代前句中的主语，就会构成run-on错误。这里为什么不会呢？我似乎在prep笔记里也看到说如果and连接2个句子，中间没有逗号就可以公用一个主语，如果两个句子有不同的主语，就必须有逗号在and前面隔开，这是不是run-on错误？请问该如何区分？

中间有逗号，前后句子是同一个主语也是可以的，只要前后的动作没有逻辑关系，不算run-on，也不算累赘。

比如在此：rise and fall和serve不是同时发生的动作, 不存在逻辑关系。如若存在逻辑关系应该是累赘吧，不过GMAT里面不会把这个作为考点。
