In California today, Hispanics under the age of eighteen account for more than 43 percent, compared with a decade ago, when it was about 35 percent.

A. In California today, Hispanics under the age of eighteen account for more than 43 percent,
compared with a decade ago, when it was  about 35 percent.
B. Of the Californians under the age of eighteen, today more than 43 percent of them are Hispanic, compared with a decade ago, when it was  about 35 percent.
C. Today, more than 43 percent of Californians under the age of eighteen are Hispanic, compared with about 35 percent a decade ago.
D. Today, compared to a decade ago, Californians who are Hispanics under the age of eighteen account for more than 43 percent, whereas it  was about 35 percent.
E. Today, Hispanics under the age of eighteen in California account for more than 43 percent, unlike a decade ago, when it  was about 35 percent.

这个E怎么就不平行了。。。还有D  it怎么指代不清了。。怎么看指代不清的问题啊。。不会

D中compared to a decade ago，放在两个逗号中间，前后修饰不清，可以修饰today，也可以修饰Californians，it指代什么？LZ找找看～

E中那部分应该Unlike a decade ago，today。。。。。。。不然这样的话，只能说43％不像10年前。

关于it指代问题，我觉得如果逻辑上知道具体指代的是什么，那么就没有必要追着it说它指代有问题。这道题的it明显就是指的是the percentage嘛！是个人都会懂的。

我觉得这道题A/B/E里的"when it was about 35 percent"不是错在it指代问题。而是错在：
1. 没有C简洁，表达地很绕
2. 不对应。和Hispanics account for 43 percent 对应的应该是 when they did about 35 percent

E 不平行，是指主句和对比部分的对比对象不一致。Hispanics 和 a decade ago 不对应。

D选项不是it 的指代问题，而是 it was about 35 percent 无法被前面的a decade ago 修饰。
