5. The striking differences between the semantic organization of Native American languages and that of European languages, in both grammar and vocabulary, have led scholars to think about the degree to which differences in language may be correlated with nonlinguistic differences.
A. that of European languages, in both grammar and vocabulary, have
B. that of European languages, including grammar and vocabulary, has
C. those of European languages, which include grammar and vocabulary, have
D. those of European languages, in grammar as well as vocabulary, has
E. those of European languages, both in grammar and vocabulary, has
首先发现差异性 have和has的区别; both and平行要注意; that和those看看指代的谁
正确
Has的动作发起者应该是differences,这里用has错误
Those的话,找千面的唯一指代,发现organization做并列;那么这里应该是that而不是those
Has的动作发起者应该是differences,这里用has错误
26
Has的动作发起者应该是differences,这里用has错误

(B) 主谓不一致,主语the bones,谓语应该用have been; and前后不平行,前者是名词,a distant relative后者是介词短语with a close…
(C) 介词短语In Madagascar离它的修饰对象have been discovered太远,
(D) 改变句子重心,原句的重心是bones have been discovered,而该选项的重心是a distant relative is Majungatholus atopus; bearing a close resemblance to结构表达笨拙,并且原句中该成分同a distant relative并列,而这里变成分词结构,修饰a distant relative,成为了附属成分
(E) and前后不平行,前者是名词a distant relative,后者是动名词closely resembling; a distant relative从逻辑意思上不能作为bones的同位语
