OG 12 46 很费解

In ancient Thailand，much of the local artisans' creative energy was expendedfor the creation of Buddha images and when they constructed and decorated thetemples that enshrined them.
(A)much of the local artisans' creative energy was expended for the creation ofBuddha images and when they constructed and decorated the temples thatenshrined them
(B)much of thelocal artisans' creative energy was expended on the creation of Buddha imagesand on construction and decoration of the temples in which they were enshrined
(C)much of the local artisans' creative energy was expended on the creation ofBuddha images as well as constructing and decoration of the temples in whichthey were enshrined
(D)creating images of Buddha accounted for much of the local artisans' creativeenergy, and also constructing and decorating the temples enshrining them
(E)the creation of Buddha images accounted for much of the local artisans'creative energy as well as construction and decoration of the temples thatenshrined them

首先我觉得D的逻辑意思变掉了。 其次想问下D中黑体部分。 OG说 and also 这  用了and就割裂了后两项，使得constructing and decorating the temples enshriningthem很多余 ，因为不是个完整的句子。

也就是如果举例子 应该是 A， B ，and C  或者 A and B and C ？  没有 A and B ，and C 的用法

不是的。
在语法中，几个元素并列，用多少个and都可以，A, and B, and C也是可以接受的，只是会让人觉得不简洁，如果是A.B.C的平行，最简洁的并列方式就是在最后一个元素前面出现and

D选项之所以不对，是因为and also后面用的是constructing and decorating ，本意是与creating并列的，但是creating images of Buddha accounted for much of the local artisans' creativeenergy已经是一个完整的句子了，constructing and decorating应该放在并列对象的后面，不是隔了一个谓宾再并列。这种并列让人一看就没有好感

B中，on the creation of Buddha images and on construction and decoration of the temples 虽然有两个and，不过是两个层次的并列：首先是on the creation 和 on （construction and decoration ），然后是construction 和decoration 的并列。这种多层次并列就很完美~

除此之外，and also也是一种redundancy的表达

我来补充下LS说的

关于and also （ 我觉得还是不要记住所谓的redundancy）


我记得GMAT常考的错误结构是both...and also（这个时候你能很有信心的把这个选项给排除掉）


我记得官方材料有个正确选项就是and also （其实这里的and also的用法就是lower priority，有点像as well as的补充作用）


A novelist who turned away from literary realism towrite romantic stories about the peasant life and landscape of northern Sweden,Selma Lagerlöf became in 1909 the first woman and also the first Swedish writerto winthe Nobel Prize for Literature.


A, and B, and C不可以接受这个结构，同意LZ，完全看不出谁跟谁平行


如果ABC三者平行，应该是A , B and C
如果C是A的补充就应该是A and B ，as well as C
如果A和C平行，B是A的同位语，就应该是A,B, and C （貌似没见过这个结构啊，蛋疼，不过这个结构我挺肯定的）
