问题 In a plan to stop the erosion of East Coast beaches, the Army Crops of Engineering proposed building parallel to shore a breakwater of rocks that would rise six feet above the waterline and act as a buffer, so that it absorbs the energy of crashing waves and protecting the beaches.

选项 A、act as a buffer, so that it absorbs
B、act like a buffer so as to absorb
C、act as a buffer, absorbing
D、acting as a buffer, absorbing
E、acting like a buffer, absorb

答案C

解析 本句展示了and的判定意义。第一个and表明act应与rise并列,而不是与building并列,排除D、E;第二个and表明absorb应与protect形式一致,由此选C。absorbing与protecting并列作rise和act的伴随结果。此句中的parallel to shore修饰a breakwater,由于a breakwater后还有定语从句修饰,所以把parallel to shore前置。
