The parachutelike membranes of Africa's scaly-tailed flying squirrels differ from those of the flying
squirrels in the family Sciuridae because they are attached to a cartilage rod at the elbow instead of
the wrist.

(A) because they are attached to a cartilage rod at the elbow instead of
(B) because of being attached to a cartilage rod at the elbow rather than at
(C) in their attachment to a cartilage rod at the elbow instead of being attached at
(D) in that they are attached to a cartilage rod at the elbow rather than at
(E) in their being attached to a cartilage rod at the elbow instead of

我想请问，这道题除了主要错误在于“instead of”和"rather than"所构成的比较，是不是还涉及because和in that的比较，在A选项中，即使后面的比较正确了，是不是用because也不行，因为前面没逗号？

我觉得in that和because的区别应该不会考

另外xdf说过“介词尽量补出原则”

because前没有逗号并无大碍

because前应该加逗号，当然instead of用的不对

in that比because更书面化

我记得OG某题的解释说in that非常正式，一般不用。。。

對, OG11/12上有說"in that"用來表"因為"過於formal.
"in that"可用在表"在那一方面"
如果because是對why
那in that是對how

If A is: because they are attached to a cartilage rod at the elbow instead of at
Then it should be right? Open to discussion.

umm..不可以...
because有強烈的因果關係.
由因導致果
如果選A加at, 那意思就不對:
they are attached to a cartilage rod at the elbow instead of at the wrist導致The

parachutelike membranes of Africa's scaly-tailed flying squirrels differ from

those of the flying squirrels in the family Sciuridae.
