220. For almost a hundred years after having its beginning in 1788, England exiled some 160,000 criminals to LACE w:st="on">AustraliaLACE>.

(D) During a hundred years, a period beginning in 1788,

Aside from being wordy and awkward, choice A is illogical: because its refers grammatically to England, A states nonsensically that LACE w:st="on">EnglandLACE> had its beginning in 1788. Choice B is similarly illogical, because the initial verb phrase Beginning in 1788 ... modifies LACE w:st="on">EnglandLACE>, the subject of the main clause. Choice C is imprecise, saying that LACE w:st="on">EnglandLACE> in 1788 was Beginning a period... but not conveying the sense that anything happened within that period. Choice D is awkward and unidiomatic, and nonsensically suggests that a hundred years is defined as a period beginning in 1788. Precise and idiomatically phrased, choice E is best.

我做OG220的时候, 对D的错误总结为,同位语要有解释力,范围应该比被同位词范围大, 做错了A-10以后,发现这个总结是有问题的. 但我不明白的是OG220说," A,B"这种结构是A is defined as B, 那为什么A-10里面就不是把a specific group定义为the golden macaques了?感觉如果是定义应该是把the golden macaques定义为a specific group才对啊? 当时就是因为这个考虑所有没有敢选BDE
