Q15:

In little more than a decade, Argentina has become the world’s leading exporter of honey, with nearly 90,000 tons a year sold to foreign markets, almost half of which going to the United States. 

1. with nearly 90,000 tons a year sold to foreign markets, almost half of which going
2. with the sale of nearly 90,000 tons a year to foreign markets, and almost half of it that goes
3. with the sale to foreign markets of nearly 90,000 tons a year, with almost half of it going
4. selling nearly 90,000 tons a year to foreign markets, and almost half of it goes
5. selling nearly 90,000 tons a year to foreign markets, with almost half going

答案是E﹐應該沒有問題。我選了D。

想請問是否應這樣理解。selling nearly 90,000 tons a year to foreign markets是伴隨修飾前面的句子。忽略掉這個伴隨後﹐with almost half going 修飾前面的honey.

選D的時候是因為覺得 with almost half不能修飾foreign markets﹐邏輯意義不通。現在看起來應該是可能修飾前面的honey.這應該不算是跳躍修飾。這樣的理解對嗎﹖

D中的it 指代不清.

it應該只能是指代honey呀。其它的就只要Argentina了。這似乎差的遠了點。今天在讀這個題﹐with almost half going越看越想獨立主格。

是不是almost half of it goes容易讓人誤解是世界上一半的honey去了美國﹖而不是阿根廷的一半honey﹖

1. selling nearly 90,000 tons a year to foreign markets, and almost half of it goes
2. selling nearly 90,000 tons a year to foreign markets, with almost half going

E中的with是独立主格,修饰前面的selling nearly 90,000 tons a year to foreign markets

D中就算it指代honey可以(不讨论意义的问题),and也没有并列的对象
