选项
A、Studying skeletons unearthed near Rome, DNA evidence was recovered by scientists, who were able to deduce from this
B、In studying skeletons unearthed near Rome, DNA evidence was recovered by scientists, who were able to deduce from this
C、Scientists recovered DNA evidence from studying skeletons unearthed near Rome, being able to deduce from this
D、Skeletons unearthed near Rome allowed scientists to recover DNA evidence, and they were able to deduce from it
E、Scientists studying skeletons unearthed near Rome recovered DNA evidence from which they were able to deduce
答案
E
解析
Logical predication; Rhetorical construction
The sentence explains that scientists recovered DNA evidence from skeletons, revealing evidence of malaria. As the sentence is written, the participial phrase studying skeletons is misplaced; grammatically it modifies the subject of the main clause, thus illogically indicating that the evidence studied the skeletons.
A The participial phrase studying skeletons illogically modifies evidence.
B The participial phrase studying skeletons illogically modifies evidence.
C The sentence incorrectly states that DNA evidence was recovered from studying skeletons rather than from the skeletons; the phrase being able to deduce from this is awkward and wordy.
D The construction skeletons... allowed scientists gives the action of the sentence to the skeletons rather than the scientists; the antecedent of the pronoun they is ambiguous, possibly referring either to scientists or to skeletons.
E Correct. Scientists is the subject of the main clause, and studying skeletons correctly modifies scientists.
The correct answer is E.
