Literacy opened up entire realms of verifiable knowledge to ordinary men and women
having been previously considered incapable of discerning truth for themselves.
选项
A、having been previously considered incapable of discerning truth for themselves
B、who had previously been considered incapable of discerning truth for themselves
C、previously considered incapable of discerning truth for himself or herself
D、of whom it had previously been considered they were incapable of discerning truth for themselves
E、who had previously been considered incapable of discerning truth for himself or herself
答案
B
解析
Rhetorical construction; Agreement
The phrase beginning with having been modifies the noun phrase ordinary men and women. In cases like this, it is best to use a full relative clause, starting with that or a relative pronoun such as which or who, instead of a clause with the -ing form of the verb. Also, themselves is the correct form of a reflexive pronoun to refer back to the plural noun phrase ordinary men and women.
A A phrase starting with the -ing verb form, instead of with that or who, is awkward in this context.
B Correct. A relative clause correctly beginning with who is used, and themselves is the correct form for the reflexive pronoun.
C Himself or herself is not the correct form for the plural reflexive pronoun.
D Though the relative and reflexive pronouns are grammatically correct, the relative clause (the clause that starts with of whom) is unnecessarily long and complex.
E Himself or herself is not the correct form for the plural reflexive pronoun.
The correct answer is B.
