The British sociologist and activist Barbara Wootton once noted as a humorous example of income maldistribution that the elephant that gave rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo was earning annually exactly what she then earned as director of adult education for London.
(A) that the elephant that gave rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo was earning
(B) that the elephant, giving rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo, had been earning
(C) that there was an elephant giving rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo, and it earned
(D) the elephant that gave rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo and was earning
(E) the elephant giving rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo and that it earned
原文意思:一个家伙注意到收入分配不均:一个动物园的大象正的钱和她作为director差不多
题目分析:读完A之后发现A没有错误,留着。B用过去完成进行时,我都晕了,这个时态表示这个动作是什么时候发生的?不知道,杀。C后面用and it,但是前面用there be导致it指代不了大象,杀。D用and was earning,可前面没有于此并列的表达方式,杀。E用that it ,可前面没有that引导的从句于此对应,杀。
