[訪客]

25. Seeming to be one of the few corporations diversified enough to survive the recession, many shareholders ignored the drop in third-quarter profits and invested even more heavily in Emco.
A) Seeming to be
B) As if
C) In that they seemed
D) Although it seemed
E) Because it seemed to be

The answer is E.
I don't know what "it" represents in E.

[illuna]

it=Emco

從句意看來知道兩個句子的主詞不可能一樣...many shareholders 不可能等於 one of the few corporations

犯了修飾語誤置.....

[agk99]

除了修飾語誤置之外，排除A
我因為不知什麼是EMCO，只有憑藉基本語感找出it seems to be
這樣可以嗎？

[Karen]

若不知 it = Emco 亦可以找出答案
前後主詞不同:
seeing to be主詞是 a corporation (公司)不等於 shareholders (人)
故排除Ａ選項
