OG13 91 指代歧义的问题！！！！

91. In an effort to reduce their inventories, Italianvintners have cut prices; their wines havebeen priced to sell, and they are.

(A) have been priced to sell, and they are

(B) are priced to sell, and they have

(C) are priced to sell, and they do

(D) are being priced to sell, and have

(E) had been priced to sell, and they have

我想请问这道题划线部分的they的指代问题！！！

their wines的their是指代vintners，可是后面的and they do，中的they指代的就是wines了，这样指代不算是歧义吗？我记得Manhattan里面说一个代词只能指代一个吗？

这个第二个they指代的是wines。their wines are priced to sell, and the wines sell. 不就是这个意思吗》

不解~求教：第二个they指代的是wines么？
manhattan例句：our cars were designed to inspire envy,and they do.
这里的they就是 主语就是cars

那OG这题，我记得就是可以翻译成：他们的酒被定价销售，而且他们确实销售了。  不对么？
求大神指点啊...

谢谢~！但是我想问repeats原则是什么？Manhattan 里说 confusing switch of reference is not permitted by the GMAT. 那这里是不是their和they不能看做同一个代词，因此是可以指代不同的？

你说的“Manhattan里面说一个代词只能指代一个”应该指的是repeats

原则。但是记住，Manhattan也说过，代词指代绝对的错误有：number不

agree，gender不agree，连ambiguity都算是depends的点。
所以这个不能太追究~第二个they确实指代的是酒。
