答案
C
解析
Rhetorical construction; Parallel construction
The sentence contrasts humans with other species with respect to the distribution of left-handedness and right-handedness. Issues include use of the correct prepositions and the correct placement of component phrases such as unlike humans.
A This is wordy because the phrase beginning with respect to is redundant, given the pronoun they, which refers to most species of animals. Placing the phrase unlike humans at the end of the sentence tends to blunt the force of the comparison between humans and other animals.
B The in preceding humans makes the sentence incorrect. Because the intended contrast is between humans and most species of animals, the reference to humans would be better placed closer to the phrase most species of animals.
C Correct. The start of the sentence immediately highlights the contrast between humans and most animal species. The adverbial phrase with respect to right- or left-handedness is placed adjacent to the verbal phrase that it modifies (are evenly divided).
D The in preceding humans makes the sentence incorrect. Placing the adverbial phrase with respect to right- or left-handedness immediately following animals is confusing; it would be better placed immediately following the verbal phrase that it modifies (are evenly divided).
E To make the intended contrast clear, the reference to humans should be adjacent to (and parallel to) the reference to most species of animals. But the use of in in one case but not in the other makes the references nonparallel. For clarity, the adverbial phrase with respect to right- or left-handedness should follow the verbal phrase that it modifies {are evenly divided).
The correct answer is C.
