问题 Defense attorneys have occasionally argued that their clients’ misconduct stemmed from a reaction to something ingested, but in attributing criminal or delinquent behavior to some food allergy, the perpetrators are in effect told that they are not responsible for their action.

选项 A、in attributing criminal or delinquent behavior to some food allergy
B、if criminal or delinquent behavior is attributed to allergy to some food
C、in attributing behavior that is criminal or delinquent to an allergy to some food
D、if some food allergy is attributed as the cause of criminal or delinquent behavior
E、in attributing a food allergy as the cause of criminal or delinquent behavior

答案B

解析 D、E中的attribute…as不符合习惯表达,且因果倒置。C中的behavior that iscriminal or delinquent不简洁。A中的some food allergy的表达不符合通常的表达方式(allergy tosth.)。但是A、C的更主要错误在于:attributing的动作执行者本应是attorneys,而不是A、C中的perpetrators,因为划线部分之前已指出“律师认为他们的委托人的错误行为来自于某些食物的反应”。同时,A、C中的表达使得in attributing短语与后面的主句之间的逻辑关系脱钩,而B用if引导,使得状语与主句的逻辑关系非常清楚。
