prep 一道求教NN!

Ozone, a special form of oxygen that screens out harmful ultraviolet rays, reaches high concentrations twelve miles above Earth, where it has long appeared that it was immune from human influence；we have now realized, though, that emissions of industrial chlorofluorocarbons deplete the ozone layer.
(A) has long appeared that it was immune from
(B) has long appeared to have been immune from
(C) has long appeared as being immune to
(D) had long appeared immune to
(E) had long appeared that it was immune to
选D ,为什么用过去完成时？还有A的第一个it 到底指代哪一个？不是应该就近指代earth?为什么有人说指代ozone ?

A的问题还有啊
appear只能是

immune to习惯用语

唔..好像这里没有就近指代这一说吧..

第二个句子用的现在完成时，表示已经认识到了，（过去，延续到现在）
根据句子的逻辑意思appear是比realize还要早的一个动作，就是说比过去都要早，那么就要用过去完成时表示“过去的过去”
