    周老师解释:Rhetorical construction; Idiom; Parallelism
    Using a lot of parenthetical elements, this sentence communicates the main idea that Elizabeth Barber is an authority on textiles in ancient societies. It is the main rhetorical goal of the sentence to position the parenthetical elements so that they do not obscure the main idea. The parenthetical descriptions need to be streamlined enough to be informative, but not too long. In addition, several versions repeat of before the title Women's Work and doing so makes the sentence unparallel; the first of comes before both and so should distribute over both clauses.
    A.不平行; expert authority用词重复
    B.also多余; expert authority用词重复; authority 搭配on而不是about
    C.不平行; account 搭配of而不是about
    D.同(A)(C)
    E.CORRECT
