OG144没有问过的问题

144. Efforts to equalize the funds available to school districts, a major goal of education reformers and many states in the 1970's, has not significantly reduced the gaps existing between the richest and poorest districts.
(A) has not significantly reduced the gaps existing
(B) has not been significant in reducing the gap that exists
(C) has not made a significant reduction in the gap that exists
(D) have not significantly reduced the gap that exists
(E) have not been significant in a reduction of the gaps existing
这个题目的答案没有太大的问题，但是对于红色字体的部分，有点疑问，到底是指代efforts to ....还是指代其他的呢？如果是efforts to ...怎么能是a major goal？单复数不是不一致吗？请大家指教！多谢！

主语与同位语单复数不必相同啊。我以为a goal就是 efforts的同位语。过去见过一句话，

主语是一串珠子，同位语用了珠子的复数（大体意思是这样），所以主语与同位语单复数不一定

一样，意思说得过去就行了。还有这个题是不是选D啊~~

同问，这个 A major goal是指代了哪一个呢？？

一直不理解，开始把a major goal……作为effects的同位语，可是efforts作为复数名次做句子主语，a goal又是单数名次。那到底这个goal是谁的同位语呢？

从句意看应该是指代equalize the funds available to school districts。

sorry,楼主猜的完全正确。
