(B) so too are modems,the devices that allow
(C) so too modems,the devices allowing
(D) also modems,they are the devices that allow

答案

可以的
这个题的语法错误在于Grammatical construction+Rhetorical construction
C的错误在于少了are 后面的that allow 或者allowing都对
OG上关于的解释是:
(1)C项的错误在于:
Verb "are" is necessary to make this a main clause
(2)关于allow:
"To allow"is not an idionatic way to modify device; either "that allow" or "allowing " would be correct
LZ你没有看OG吗?这是OG11,10页上的18题,仔细看看OG,比我解释得更详细的
