198. Although Napoleon's army entered Russia with far more supplies than they had in their previous campaigns, it had provisions for only twenty-four days. fficeffice" />

(A) they had in their previous campaigns

(B) their previous campaigns had had

(C) they had for any previous campaign

(D) in their previous campaigns

(E) for any previous campaign

If than is followed by a clause referring to army, the subject of that clause must be singular (it). Furthermore, the verb of that clause will need to be in the past perfect form (had had) because it refers to a time before the simple past of entered. Finally, the preposition for is more precise than in because supplies are gathered for an upcoming campaign. Choices A and C incorrectly use the plural they and the simple past had. Moreover, A uses the less precise in. Choices D and E wisely dispense with the full clause and use a simple prepositional phrase. D, however, uses the imprecise in and the plural their. Only E, the best choice, avoids all the errors mentioned above. 其实这道题用代词指代很容易判断答案，可是非常不明白为什么用E，如果D改成in his previous campaigns ,总觉得应该是在以前的战斗里，怎么能用for呢？OG的解释只说in是less precise，为什么less precise了？

supplies是for还是in － previous campaign?fficeffice" />

如果感觉不出来，试试中文翻译。

supplies in previous campaign，不代表supplies和previous campaign密切有关。 而supplies for previous campaign，就建立了强烈的联系。
