182.Consumers may not think of household cleaning products to be hazardous substances, but many of them can be harmful to health, especially if they are used improperly.

(A) Consumers may not think of household cleaning products to be
(B) Consumers may not think of household cleaning products being
(C) A consumer may not think of their household cleaning products being
(D) A consumer may not think of household cleaning products as
(E) Household cleaning products may not be thought of, by consumers, as

答案是D
想請問一下，假如D這個選項是

Consumers may not think of household cleaning
products as

那是不是答案E比較好呢？

我的想法是，這樣後面的many of them 的them才不會不清楚，且前後的subject也明確



有關consistency，對於「前後主詞是否要保持相同」常感到疑惑，在選答案的時候會有不確定的感覺。

1. 選項(E) 用被動 感覺很不簡潔

2. (E) 選項中有兩個複數名辭 Household cleaning products和consumers
這樣反而會造成混淆 不知them在指何者?

以上是我的一點看法

[best555tw]

我覺得還是D比較好

主動沒錯改被動-->wordy
被動-->強調的對象改變

ㄛ
如果照你所講把答案 D 的 a consumer 改成 consumers
我個人覺得
的確答案 E 就會比答案 D 好了
在兩個複數名詞同時出現的情況下
至少答案E 還適用 代名詞優先代替原題主詞 的原則
不會造成指涉不清
