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.
Usually found in pools of stagnant water or mud, crawfish are esthetically unappealing arthropods, except if they are boiled, at which point it yields a tasty treat.

选项 A、crawfish are esthetically unappealing arthropods, except if they are boiled, at which point
B、crawfish are esthetically unappealing arthropods, but after a proper boiling
C、the crawfish is an esthetically unappealing arthropod, in contrast to after being properly boiled
D、the crawfish is an arthropod that does not appeal esthetically, but subsequent to having been boiled properly
E、the crawfish is an esthetically unappealing arthropod, although after a proper boiling

答案E

解析 The final clause, "it yields a tasty treat," calls for a singular subject in the underlined passage, so A and B are out. Between C, D, and E, the wording of E is the clearest and most standard. E is the best choice.
