问题 In 1929 relatively small declines in the market ruined many speculators having bought on margin; they had to sell, and their selling pushed other investors to the brink.
选项 A、speculators having bought on margin; they had to sell, and
B、speculators who had bought on margin; having had to sell,
C、speculators who had bought on margin; they had to sell, and
D、speculators, those who had bought on margin; these speculators had to sell, and
E、speculators, who, having bought on margin and having to sell,
答案 C
解析 在划线部分，having bought on margin是现在分词的完成形式，作speculators的修饰语，这种用法是错误的(因为用现在分词作修饰词时要求该动作与主句谓语动作是同时的，而现在分词的完成体显然表明bought早于ruined，因而不适用分词修饰，而应换用从句)。A错；B中their selling成了分词短语having had to sell的逻辑主语，说不通；D中speculators，those who…中those纯属多余，these speculators完全可用they指代；E中抛开having bought这一短语不看，whotheir selling不知是何意思。选C，把A中现在分词完成体的错误修饰改成用限定性从句修饰在分号之后用两个短句并列，描述了一个先后过程。
