答案应该是C，OG里面有这道题目。C中的do是代替do sell，与前面的不定式priced to sell对应。
附上OG的官方解释：In choice C, the best answer, do is correctly used in place of the full verb do sell; in this verb, do is a conjugated form and sell is in the infinitive form, corresponding to its previous use in the sentence (in the phrase priced to sell). In choice A, the omitted word is selling; in B, D, and E, it is sold. Neither of these forms corresponds properly to to sell earlier in the sentence. Also, in E, the past perfect had been priced signifies that the wines had been priced to sell before the prices were cut.

WINES DO( SELL)  确实被卖了
隐含的指代省略,是GRAMMA 中的 常见错误CONFUSION.

WINES ARE( PRICED TO SELL ) 确实被削价去卖了

则是GRAMMA 允许的并列结构中的(重复部分的)省略.


OG 中对A, C 的解释有些牵强吧.

OG的解释没有问题。do的确可以代替省略的不定式，这是一种正确用法。
