Since 1992, in an attempt to build up the Atlantic salmon population in each of the seven rivers in which salmon still spawn, state officials in Maine have stocked
them
with fry raised in hatcheries from eggs produced by wild fish found in that particular river.
选项
A、them
B、the river
C、the rivers
D、each river
E、that river
答案
D
解析
Rhetorical construction; Diction
The meaning that the sentence was intended to convey is clear, but because the plural them is discordant with the singulars each and that particular river, the sentence fails to express its intended meaning coherently.
A The earlier part of the sentence uses the phrase each of the seven rivers, so the plural them is inappropriate.
B The phrase the river is singular but can refer only to a particular river, whereas each refers to the individual rivers in the group of seven.
C The plural the rivers does not match the singular each in the earlier part of the sentence.
D Correct. The phrase each river is consistent with the earlier reference to "each of the seven rivers."
E Although that river is singular, it can only refer to a particular river, but no particular river is referred to in the earlier part of the sentence.
The correct answer is D.
