题目分析:
本题较为简单,根据“平行”和“主谓一致”这两个语法点就可以得出答案。
选项分析:
选项A:代词their的指代对象只能是一个复数名词,在逻辑上,应该是小树的叶子和小树的花儿,由于“小树(mistletoe)”是一个单数名词,所以their应改为its。
选项B:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
选项C:平行触发语both…and…连接两者需要保证语法平行,即,应该用both because xxx and because xxx。
选项D:由于整句话主语的核心词是单数名词survival(The survival of a rare New Zealand species of mistletoe that produces spectacular sprays of scarlet flowers),所以谓语动词be也应该用单数,即,is。另外,both…and…连接对象的平行错误(C)。
选项E:主谓一致错误同选项(D);代词their指代对象错误同选项(A)。
主语是survival,主谓不一致可以排除D、E
both...and平行结构,B correct
