问题 Margaret Courtney-Clarke has traveled to remote dwellings in the Transvaal to photograph the art of Ndebele women, whose murals are brilliantly colored, their geometrical symmetries embellished with old and new iconography and in a style that varies from woman to woman and house to house.

选项 A、whose murals are brilliantly colored, their geometrical symmetries embellished with old and new iconography and in a style that varies from woman to woman and house to house
B、whose murals are brilliantly colored, their geometrical symmetries are embellished with old and new iconography, and their style is varying among woman and houses
C、whose murals are brilliantly colored, their geometrical symmetries are embellished with old and new iconography, and they are in styles that vary from woman to woman and house to house
D、with murals brilliantly colored, their geometrical symmetries embellished with old and new iconography, and their style varies among woman and house
E、with murals that are brilliantly colored, their geometrical symmetries embellished with old and new iconography, and their styles vary among woman and house

答案A

解析 首先A看不出什么问题。再看B、C、D、E四个选项,发现它们有一个共同的特征:每个选项中均有一个或两个完整的句子。换句话说,从语法角度分析,在这些选项中出现的完整句子都应与Margaret Courtney—Clarke has traveled此主句同等重要,并且是并列或递进关系,因为中间的连接词是and。但如果真是这样,选项中的they或their就应优先指代women(在Margaret Courtney-Clarke has traveled中提到的),而不会指代whose从句中的murals。也就是说,划线部分的their或they are in styles就可由women’style或women are styles来替换。显然,把此替代放回原句中,句意理解不通;更为重要的是,主句Margaret Courtney—Clarkehas traveled与这些选项中的句子之间的关系是跳跃式的或莫名奇妙的——前面讲MargaretCourtney-Clarke的行为,后面讲women的行为,因而也是不合逻辑的。回过头再看A,whose从句修饰women;短语their geometrical symmetries embellished作独立主格结构,对murals作修饰,而with短语和in介词短语并列对embellished的方式进行描述,style后的that从句对style进行限定,整个句子是一个非常完美的主从复合句。
