问题 The following questions present a sentence, part of which or all of which is underlined. Beneath the sentence, you will find five ways of phrasing the underlined part. The first of these repeats the original; the other four are different. If you think the original is best, choose the first answer; otherwise choose one of the others.
   These questions test correctness and effectiveness of expression. In choosing your answer, follow the requirements of standard written English; that is, pay attention to grammar, choice of words, and sentence construction. Choose the answer that produces the most effective sentence; this answer should be clear and exact, without awkwardness, ambiguity, redundancy, or grammatical error.
During the bronze sculpture boom of the late 1950s, more than 20 tons of bronze were shipped to the SoHo district of Manhattan so as they might sculpt countless bronze statues, busts, abstract shapes, and whimsical figurines.
选项 A、so as they might sculpt
B、in order that they might be sculpted into
C、so that there could be sculpted
D、for the sculpting of
E、such that they could be sculpted into
答案D
解析 A incorrectly suggests that the tons of bronze might sculpt themselves. B and E are awkwardly worded, and their suggestion that the "tons" rather than the "bronze" will be sculpted is somewhat confusing. C is unidiomatic. D is the most concise and idiomatic choice.
