Written early in the French Revolution, Mary Wollstonecraft’s A Vindication of the Rights of Man (1790) and A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (1792) attributed Europe’s social and political ills to be the result of the dominance of aristocratic values and patriarchal hereditary privilege.
错选了E. 首先读原句感觉没什么大问题就是后面那个ills to be the result of xxx感觉有点奇怪 后来通过对比选项发现根据主语的不同(人/作品)分成了两类, 感觉E选项“MW,(在作品xxx中),attribute sth to sth” 人把social and political ills归因于the dominance of xxx,也讲的过去. CE只是主语不同 所以不知道E哪里错 多谢老师

After several years of rapid growth, the healthy care company became one of the largest health care providers in the metropolitan area, while it then proved unable to handle the increase in business, falling months behind in its payment to doctors and hospitals.
请王文静老师回答一下这个问题,谢谢! 老师,我针对A选项有以下几个问题: 1)while的用法是否有误 2)while是否和but一样可以引导并列复合句,并且表转折 3)while it...——这个it是否多余 4)falling behind in its payment to sb这个用法有何不妥 针对E选项: 1)E选项中的falling months...是否是前句的附属修饰成分 2) E选项中but引导的简单句省略了主语,请问老师什么时候这个并列连词引导的简单句的主语是可以省略的,什么时候是不能省略的?是否并列连词前后主语一致的时候就可以省略,比如She cut her knee badly, but didn't cry; 是否并列连词前后句的谓语一致的时候,也可以省略后句的谓语,比如We study English and they Japanese. 谢谢!
