OG中对于D选项的解释我表示不理解，它的解释是 it 指代不清，存在太多可能，而首先 it 不能指代整句话（个人认为这是错误原因），前面的sea eagles 也是复数，排除；难道 OG  的意思是 指代
western Scotland 或 summer？？可是 介词短语里的名词成分 也不好指代啊。。。求各位NN，大侠解答。。。
谢谢各位~~~

47. Five fledgling sea eagles left their nests in western Scotland this summer, bringing to 34 the number of wild birds successfully raised since transplants from Norway began in 1975.

(A) bringing

(B) and brings

(C) and it brings

(D) and it brought

(E) and brought

Verb form; Grammatical construction

Bringing is the present participle of the verb to bring. As used here, it correctly describes an

action that happens at the same time as the action in the main clause; bringing indicates that the number of wild birds became 34 when the five eagles left their nests.

A Correct. The participle bringing correctly links the two ideas in the sentence.

B In this construction, the subject of the second verb must be the same as the subject

of the first verb, but fi ve eagles cannot grammatically or logically be the subject of brings.

C It brings is the wrong tense.

D There are too many possible referents for it.

E Five eagles can be the grammatical subject of brought, but not the logical one; it was not

the eagles themselves but rather the entire action of their leaving their nests that brought the number to 34.

The correct answer is A.

这道题考的就是left和bring这两个单词的关系~而这里，根据句意，bring是表left的动作发出的结果~
而如果像D中用and并列，如果并列，意思就不对了~

其实我也不是很懂这里it的指代，我感觉it应该知道前面的5个小鸟，这里可能是将他们看成了整体，所以才用it~

annie再等等别人的回答吧~我这道题没有考虑过it~

LeannaChina

它这里用it 是想指代前面一整句话，而it 是不能指代一整句话的。5只鸟离开这个事件 导致总数量增至34，也就是你说的因果关系。觉得OG解释没到点子上，还是我们底子太薄。。。伤心了。。。

Sunfisher006

你怎么觉得it是指句子呢？？？不可能啊亲~这逆天了啊~    同求NN帮忙啊~表让我们俩傻下去啦~~~~~

LeannaChina

亲，您能认真一点看么。。。。我说it不能指前面一整句话，而在这里只有指一整句才是符合逻辑的，才表达了作者想要表达的意思。。。。所以用错了。。。也就是说我排除这个选项是因为it不能指代前面一句话，而OG排除是说it指代有多种可能。。。。

我也觉得很奇怪啊啊啊
D.Five fledgling sea eagles left their nests in western Scotland this summer, and it brought to 34 the number of wild birds successfully raised since transplants from Norway began in 1975.
在E的选项中写到 it was not the eagles themselves but rather the entire action of their leaving their nests that brought the number to 34. 所以是上面这群鸟离开的整个事件引起的数量增加

p.s  E中为毛用brought就是five eagles是主语了

同等nn

Five fledgling sea eagles left their nests in western Scotland this summer,

and brought to 34 the number of wild birds successfully raised since transplants from Norway began in 1975.
and 连接两个句子。OG的意思是 共用一个主语，即 left 和 brought 平行，则从语法角度来说 brought 的主语就是 Five fledgling sea eagles，但逻辑上讲不通。

那能不能问一下，既然是前面的动作导致后面的发生，为什么bringing不是表结果，而是伴随呢？OG解释说是happens at same time，请问这个怎么理解？

the "ing" action is adirect AND immediate consequences of the main action.
因为是立即产生的结果，OG上说同时也是可以的。
