[muching]

Evolutionary psychology holds that the human mind is not a "blank slate," but instead that it comprises specialized mental mechanisms that were developed as a way of solving specific problems human ancestors faced millions of years ago.

(A) the human mind is not a "blank slate," but instead that it comprises specialized mental mechanisms that were developed as a way of solving
(B) the human mind is not a "blank slate" but instead comprises specialized mental mechanisms that were developed to solve
(C) the human mind, instead of a "blank slate," it comprises specialized mental mechanisms that have been developed to solve
(D) rather than it being a "blank slate," the human mind comprises specialized mental mechanisms that have been developed as a way of solving
(E) rather than the human mind's being a "blank slate," that it comprises specialized mental mechanisms that were developed as a way of solving


這題正確答案是(B), 解題時,因為being的出現 所以刪去了(D)(E),其他的想請各位大大幫忙講解一下好嗎? 3Q

(A) instead 後面的 that 要指?
(C)沒有動詞，因為the human mind "is" a blank slate, instead 是副詞，這個句子要表達前述意義不能沒有動詞

[dibert8]

(A) 試圖表達 ...holds that... but... that
instead (adv.) 沒有文法上的意義,去掉它就看到了句子結構.
that 名詞子句連接詞作 holds 的受詞

(C) mind 和 it 競爭主詞; 逗點中間是插句.

感謝喔!!!

[oneseven]

but...not...連接平行結構
(A) the human mind is not a "blank slate," but instead that 結構不平行
developed as a way of solving 表達複雜 直接用developed to solve 表目的
(C) 代詞 it 指代 the human mind 多餘
(D) rather than it being a "blank slate 結構表達複雜 it 多於要刪掉
(E) 兩個 that 從句缺少連接詞

(B) the human mind is not a "blank slate" but instead comprises specialized mental mechanisms that were developed to solve

instead is adv

[julanlu808]

(B) the human mind is not a "blank slate" but instead comprises specialized mental mechanisms that were developed to solve

這題很勉強的用刪去法選到了B

我想問的是not A but B中的A and B不是應該要平行對稱嗎?
the human mind is not a "blank slate" but instead comprises
--> not + N + but + V
這樣不對稱ㄚ??

but有兩種平形 不過都是由"舊資訊省略"的原則而來。

S V1 N, but (V2) N → V前後動詞一樣所以省略。
S V1 N, but V2 N → V前後動詞不一樣所以不能省。

我也是在A跟B之間掙扎選錯
(A)
解釋1: 我一開始以為instead that指的是instead (the human minds is not a blank slate)這個解釋，但之後發現就算真是這樣，it前面也應該要加個逗號之類的，不然句子看起來頗怪異→刪除
解釋2: it指代不明(Evolutionary psychology or human mind)→刪除
(C) it多餘→刪除
(D) rather前面應加逗號、it多餘→刪除
(E) rather前面應加逗號、that多餘、human mind's being句子結構怪異→刪除
以上是我的篩選方式，不確定對不對，歡迎多加討論。
