(A)much of the local artisans' creative energy was expended for the creation of Buddha images and when they constructed and decorated the temples that enshrined them

(B)much of the local artisans' creative energy was expended on the creation of Buddha images and on construction and decoration of the temples in which they were enshrined

(C)much of the local artisans' creative energy was expended on the creation of Buddha images as well as constructing and decoration of the temples in which they were enshrined

(D)creating images of Buddha accounted for much of the local artisans' creative energy， and also constructing and decorating the temples enshrining them

(E)the creation of Buddha images accounted for much of the local artisans' creative energy as well as construction and decoration of the temples that enshrined them

答案是B，只是我想请问一下，B选项里，they指代的是BUDDBA IMAGES, 可是 sth of n的形式里，n不是不可以被指代吗？
请高手解答一下。

哪里说了不能指代，麻烦你指出来一下。

in which 的which 指代temples，逻辑上看能在temples里被被祭祀的只有Buddha image，而不是其他吧

谢谢。我又查了一下以前看的那个语法帖子。

里面有一段说的是 n's和sth of n中的n不能被指代。我就记下来了。没想后面有反驳的说只有前者不可以。

一直记错了那么久。看来除了og上面的和大家普遍认同的，其他的都要持保留态度。。。

继续提问：
B选项答案中说：The "and also" phrase is awkwardly set apart from the main claim of the sentence—
which is that all three tasks consumed much of the artisans' energy.
这里只是说了一个and also割裂了句子吧，and also 本身是没有错误的吧？
谢谢各位NN

and also啰嗦

And also是D选项里面的.

应该是creation, construction和decoration平行.

姑且不论名词和动名词的差别, D里面把creation这个句子表达完, 然后用and also补充construction和decoration, 这三个动作离得太远了, 所以OG说set apart from the main claim.

A：they指代images，与句意不符，干掉；C：construcing 与 decoration概念上是不对等的，干掉。D：and后面的句子没有谓语动词，干掉；E：as well as是副词词性的短语，引领后面的修饰成分，问题就来了，后面的construction和decorations结构上就就近与energy并列的，但是语义上是与creation并列的，有歧义，干掉。所以选B。
