求解一个关于独立主格结构的问题~07prep155题

155.

A different variety of gianttortoise can be found on every island in the Galapagos, each with its ownstyle of oversized dome and comically scrawny neck.

(A) each with its own style ofoversized dome and comically scrawny neck

(B) each with their own styles ofoversized domes and comically scrawny necks

(C) each having their own style ofoversized dome and comically scrawny neck

(D) all having their own styles ofoversized domes and comically scrawny necks

(E) all with their own style ofoversized dome and comically scrawny neck

答案是A

07Prep语法笔记里解释这个each…是强调型独立主格结构，关于这点我有个小疑问：each引导的独立主格结构不是用于强调句尾的复数名词么，形式一般为 句子+复数名词结尾，each+介词短语/形容词短语……？

还有，如果这个each引导的部分是独立主格结构，那这部分的主语是什么呢？我觉得是giant tortoise，这不是和整个句子的主语相同了么？而独立主格结构两部分的主语不是应该不同的么？

求助各位~~实在是看的我好迷糊啊~~

variety我觉得是变种的意思。因为每个不同，所以用单数的。如果复数，一堆堆放在一起的，表述不清楚。这种象龟，估计长的很可爱。

可是我记得也是PREP语法笔记里说的，each后面不需要加with或者as呀，而且形式应该是each+n.+prep或者each+介词短语/形容词短语/-ed 形式/-ing 形式,那么这道题属于后者么？？还是……？

each明显指的是gianttortoise，一种巨型乌龟，它们有巨大的圆形龟壳，

和搞笑的（与龟壳不相称的）细脖子。
我认为不限定于句尾名词，尤其在这个句子里面。如果你把他改写成另一种形

式就明白了：
on every island in the Galapagos，we can find a different variety of

gianttortoise, each with its ownstyle of oversized dome and comically

scrawny neck.
或者是去掉修饰成分：
A different variety of gianttortoise can be found （on every island

in the Galapagos）, each with its ownstyle of oversized dome and

comically scrawny neck.这样更明白了吧？

each指的是every island in the Galapagos

独立主格在句子中作状语，无论有没有each,没有限定必须在句尾强调复数名词，那种情况更接近同位语.这句的主语是a variety,强调一类特殊的gianttortoise，而后面的each是指这个群体中的每一个gianttortoise.
