问题 Oberlin College in Ohio was a renegade institution at its 1833 founding for deciding to accept both men and women as students.

选项 A、at its 1833 founding for deciding to accept
B、for the decision at its 1833 founding to accept
C、when it was founded in 1833 for its decision to accept
D、in deciding at its founding in 1833 to accept
E、by deciding at its founding in 1833 on the acceptance of

答案D

解析 本句A、B中,at its 1833 founding的表达会让人产生一种错觉: “该学院不只建立过一次”(因为1833在founding之前作修饰成分),这种含义显然是违背原意的;C中:for短语的修饰对象是不明确的,因为它本是修饰主句作原因解,而在C中,却似乎是修饰when从句;E中:用by表明主句动作的方式,显然逻辑搭配不当,同时deciding on the acceptance of的用法不符合decided to do sth.的习惯表达;D中用in deciding to accept表明了“在决定男女同校方面,是一个背叛传统的学院”,表达了句意,同时at its founding in 1833表明了时间。值得提出的是,此处at its founding in 1833是时间状语前置,因为本句中有两个动作:decide和accept,而at its founding in 1833本意是修饰deciding的,若不前置必然会导致该时间状语变成了修饰accept。
