请问:885-secD-13 及补充250-181 状语位置及定语从句的先行词

13. Aho, a Kiowa matriarch, held festivals in her home, they featured the preparation of great quantities of ceremonial food, the wearing of many layers of colorful clothing adorned with silver, and the recounting of traditional tribal jokes and stories.

(A) Aho, a Kiowa matriarch, held festivals in her home, they featured

(B) Festivals were held in Aho, a Kiowa matriarch’s home, which featured

(C) Aho, who was a Kiowa matriarch in her home, held festivals featuring

(D) In her home, Aho, a Kiowa matriarch, held festivals that featured(key

(E) Aho, a Kiowa matriarch, held festivals in her home that featured

请教:不选E是不是因为that featured.....跟在in her home之后而有修饰home之嫌?

如果是这样,那么请问补充250-181

181.Dr. Sayre’s lecture recounted several little-known episodes in the relations between nations that illustrates what is wrong with alliances and treaties that do not have popular support. (A) relations between nations that illustrates (B) relation of one nation with another that illustrates (key : B) (C) relations between nations that illustrate (D) relation of one nation with another and illustrate (E) relations of nations that illustrates

这道题答案B:that illustrates语意上应该是修饰relation的,可是在它们中间却有of one nation with another, 这样的话,that illustrates应该也有修饰another (nation)之嫌,可为什么这种用法又是正确的呢?

另外,个人认为在表达两两间的关系中,C的relations between nations 要比B的relation of one nation with another更好,SO ,为什么不选C呢?

困惑于:定语从句--限制性或非限制性定语从句,以及作定语的分词--现在分词或过去分词,与先行词的位置有什么具体要求吗?

是不是说在诸如: N1 of N2 + 定语(从句或分词)等句型中,定语(从句或分词)可以根据逻辑意思“选择”修饰N1 或是 N2(因为N1或N2是互相修饰关系,只能有其一为先行词,另一则为定语); 而在诸如:N1 + 地点状语 +定语(从句或分词)等句型中,定语(从句或分词)只能修饰前面最近的先行词(因为状语不是修饰N1的,所以后面的定语也就不能修饰N1)???

求证!

13中的that修饰有歧义的可以修饰home

181between是2个之间的比较,C中就1个nations可以说2个国家,也可以说3个以上,不明确。定语从句要求就是紧跟和修饰对象明确,逻辑上正确。a of b that这个that从句可以修饰前面也可以修饰后,这个要看逻辑上和句意是怎么样子的了,比较麻烦。
