T-3-Q2.

As the honeybee’sstinger is heavily barbed, staying where it is inserted, this results in theact of stinging causing the bee to sustain a fatal injury.

A.   As the honeybee’s stinger is heavily barbed,staying where it is inserted, this results in the act of stinging causing

B.   As the heavily barbed stinger of thehoneybee stays where it is inserted, with the result that the act of stingingcauses

C.   Honeybee’s stinger, heavily barbed and stayingwhere it is inserted, results in the fact that the act of stinging causes

D.   The heavily barbed stinger of the honeybeestays where it is inserted, and results in the act of stinging causing

E.    The honeybee’s stinger is heavily barbed andstays where it is inserted, with the result that the act of stinging causes

这题 我选 的是D，自己判断A是由于this指代问题 ，B没有谓语，句子不完整，C原先判断是中间部分不够平行，但是网上看好多人说是因为逻辑错误，E主要是对with作状语修饰不清楚，而且看D比较平行，所以就选了D，没有考察D的逻辑。请问D除了逻辑上有错误以外，it指代到底有没有错误？我觉得it只能指代stinger啊？a of b 结构中，难道很容易指代不清吗？

谢谢

我一开始也选D，stays和results in很平行嘛~觉得E太繁琐，不过后来发现，D中的stays的动作发出者是主语stinger，而后面的results in的动作发出者应该是前面这一事实，主谓不一致，所以错了。E看似繁琐，但是无论从平行还是逻辑上考虑都是相对最合适的，GMAT考的就是逻辑，考的就是relatively correct，不是吗~呵呵~hope it helps

会。如果A B都是物或动物

Kminami

在A OF B结构中，IT的指导都会出现这样的歧义吗？如果A和B都是单数的话

D. The stinger results in the act of stinging causing.... stinger

是不能result in的.

"The heavily barbed stinger of the honeybee stays where it is

inserted" it可指代stinger或bee。的确有歧义

Kminami

就是逻辑上说不通吧，但我想问D中IT指代有没有错误 ？谢谢

The heavily barbed stinger 与results in the act 不匹配
