[問題]GWD29-Q7

[k06922001]

Until a few centuries ago, any large bones discovered in the fields or caves of Europe, now known to be large prehistoric animals, were usually assumed to be the remains of giants and were often displayed as curiosities in castles, palaces, town halls, churches, and monasteries.

A. now known to be large prehistoric animals, were usually assumed to be
B. presently known as from large prehistoric animals, were usually assumed as
C. bones now known to be those of large prehistoric animals, were usually assumed to be
D. bones known at present as of large prehistoric animals, were usually assumed as those of
E. currently known as those of large prehistoric animals, were usually assumed to be those of

答案是C，我選A.....我想問的是 C的逗點之後的bones now known to be those of large prehistoric animals....這一句是補充說明前一句嘛?可是又再出現bone會不會太囉唆呢??還有those是代替誰?後面的remains嗎??

希望大家指教一下~~謝謝

Bones now known to be those of large...是同位語修飾前面的bones, those應是指bones,如果沒有這樣寫，會覺得骨頭是大型史前動物，不合邏輯，例如(A),另外known to be those of large prehistoric animals和assumed to be the remains of giants平行

想請問大大們
莫老師是不是有講過 as和to be要優先考慮as？還是這條規則是我自己作夢做到的？

前面的大大說的很好，如果不用同位語寫會造成誤解，會變成bones=large prehistoric animals。而且known as....這個片語也可能會修飾Europe，產生歧異-->刪掉(A) (B) (E)

those不知道指代誰-->刪掉(D) (E)
