Surveys have shown that in up to 40 percent of elderly people living independently in affluent countries, the consumption of one or more essential nutrients is insufficient or they have deficient levels of these nutrients in their blood.
in up to 40 percent of elderly people living independently in affluent countries, the consumption of one or more essential nutrients is insufficient or they have
in up to 40 percent of elderly people who live independently in affluent countries, they consume one or more essential nutrients insufficiently or have
in up to 40 percent of elderly people who live independently in affluent countries, one or more essential nutrients are consumed insufficiently or having
up to 40 percent of elderly people living independently in affluent countries who consume insufficient amounts of one or more essential nutrients or who have
up to 40 percent of elderly people who live independently in affluent countries consume insufficient amounts of one or more essential nutrients or have
但是 intended meaning 应该是想说 有40%的老年人 他们XXXXX，
叠加了in相当于缩小了范围 所以排除ABC
其次，动词后面的that需要跟一个保证的句子
D选项是fragment sentence， 排除
选E
RON:
as noted in the post above -- choices a, b, c say "in these people, they consume..."
taken literally, this construction suggests that someone located inside these people is consuming nutrients.
C中的or having主语肯定不是nutrients
D不是完整句子
or前后应该平行
一句话里逻辑链一致会使表达和解意更轻松。大逻辑是survey show 两件事情，从最后面they have deficient levels of nutrients的主谓宾结构可知，前面一件事的结构最好也是人有物的结构，而不是物被人有或其他。
保留B/E，elderly people做状语还是做主语的区别。B是people do sth in people的结构，错误；E people do sth，ok。审查D的细处，show两件事情，后面一件用的是省略主语，用or+谓语动词的结构，这种结构下不涉及到show that and that的问题，ok
in+时间，表示在某个时间点，+地点表示在某处，+物体表示在……里，+事情，表示在……方面，还有其他，in English表示用英语等
in elderly people只能表示在……里，错误
同时还可以理解成是作主语和作状语的区别，消费缺乏是没有地点的，你在南边消费也好，在北边消费也好，反正消费这个东西是不够的。
The consumption is insufficient up to 40% people, up to 40% people做状语，修饰 insufficient，不够的范围？对40%的人来说不够。
in people 也是作状语，但介词都有自己的意思，in people在人们里面，错误。
--yes. in fact, it's much worse than redundancy; it actually creates the nonsense meaning that people are somehow inside themselves while consuming nutrients.
C：or having不平行
D：countries who修饰错误
剩余选项比较模糊
A：they指代不明→这个比较难以判断，从their blood来看，their应该可以明确指代elderly people→当选项没有明确考察pronoun时，不过分考虑这个问题；这道题可能比较明显的错误在于or所要求的平行，A选项让两个句子进行比较平行，根据平行的定义，要求structurely and logically parallel, 这里的前后两句话结构既不相似，逻辑关系也不够强
B，prep笔记说是insufficiently修饰不当，我不是能够特别能够理解，而且这也不算一个逻辑清晰的判断点，其次，they的指代依然不能判断清晰与否
该题有待商讨。
其他：我最开始在纠结in up to正确与否，应该是正确的，up to 修饰后面的noun phrase:40 percent of elderly people,加上in 形成介词短语修饰comma后面的整个句子。
--yes. in fact, it's much worse than redundancy; it actually creates the nonsense meaning that people are somehow inside themselves while consuming nutrients.
A. or 前后不平行
C.or 前后不平行
D.that从句缺谓语
taken literally, this construction suggests that someone located inside these people is consuming nutrients.
