Gone are the sharp edges and jutting planes of styles from former eras; instead, designers of everything from cars to computer monitors have adopted a cornerless style of smooth surfaces and curves that is more ergonomic, conforming to the shape of the body rather than flaunting shape for its own sake.
more ergonomic, conforming to the shape of the body rather than flaunting shape
more ergonomic, conformed to the body's shape and not to flaunting shape
ergonomic, more conformed to the shape of the body and not to shape flaunted
ergonomic, conforming more to the body's shape rather than shape flaunted
ergonomic, conforming more to the shape of the body than flaunting shape
注意平行关系和句意,且主语是style
first, examine the split between 'more ergonomic' and just 'ergonomic'. in this case, we must preserve the meaning of the original statement: the new design is more ergonomic than the old design. if we change this to just 'ergonomic', we're attaching an implication that the old design simply wasn't ergonomic (and that the new design, by contrast, is) - an unacceptable implication. that gets rid of answer choices c, d, and e right there.
another item to examine is parallelism. in this case, in the construction 'X rather than Y' (or its analogues, 'X and not Y' and 'more X than Y'), items X and Y must be parallel.
