C. just as earlier generations did
D. as have earlier generations
E. as it was of earlier generations

正确答案E
根据manhattan 5th Chapter5里说的，一句话里it its 或者they them their 必须指代同一个东西，为什么这里可以指代不一样的东西呢

可是有规定一个句子里it its要指代相同啊

这个规定只能用来选更优选项，不能用来排错。理论上，只能用OG中basic English gramma中所罗列的哪些规则来排除错误选项。所以我怀疑正确的SC做题套路应该是这样的：1. Eliminate choices based on the BASIC ENGLISH GRAMMA rules listed on OG; 2. Eliminate choices based on meaning, logic and even concision. 我会在第三次刷OG和做prep时去不断求证这个套路。

lanshi

its是指a majority

jssqzgring

its 不指代 a goal啊

lanshi

it指代a goal不是对的吗？请注意前面分句的动词是is，这是给你的提示。提示虽然有and结构，但是and结构表示的那是个集合-a goal。
