Yellow jackets number among the 900 or so species
of the world’s social wasps, wasps living in a highly
cooperative and organized society where they consist
almost entirely of
females—the queen and her sterile
female workers.
(A) wasps living in a highly cooperative and
organized society where they consist almost
entirely of
(B) wasps that live in a highly cooperative and
organized society consisting almost entirely of
(C) which means they live in a highly cooperative
and organized society, almost all
(D) which means that their society is highly
cooperative, organized, and it is almost entirely
(E) living in a society that is highly cooperative,
organized, and it consists of almost all

答案是B,我想请教一下各位,看了解释后觉得B说得通,但是这俩句子是啥关系啊?

怎么就一个commas给隔开了也没个连词什么的?

我对这题也有疑问,OG里对答案的解释说cooperative,organized以及consisting almost entirely of 是parallel,我不懂它们为什么是parallel.请nn们帮忙解答一下,谢谢。

wasps that live in a highly cooperative and
organized society consisting almost entirely of 是同位语

划线部分是解释前面的social wasps的吧

我觉得逗号后面那个句子是对逗号前面的wasps的解释

这题我其实也有疑惑,OG说The three descriptors of social wasps(cooperative,

organized, and consisting almost entirely of females) are most effectively

expressed in parallel structures.  可是B中这三者好像不平行啊?

在b里面能清晰地看出来, cooperative, organized 和 consisting ..... 都是修饰

social wasps的。这个应该算是形看似不平行,神色平行吧~

我的理解是:
1.cooperative, organized 和 consisting ..... 都是修饰social wasps的
2.看B选项:由于句式的原因(wasps做主语)导致最后一个动词consist不能正常的使用and连接(正常平行结构:A, B, and C),而需要用consisting做分词状语来修饰之前的society。因为consist的逻辑主语应是society(根据逻辑意思判断:不是wasps个体本身构成几乎全是女性,而因是社会性质导致)
3.再啰嗦一句:
 wasps个体本身构成几乎全是女性的意思=》wasps基本上繁殖出来的都是雌性
 社会性质导致的意思=》繁殖出来的有雌性、有雄性,但由于群体生存的需要,则导致组成一个wasps群体基本上只需要雌性
