选C

考点：句法结构+修饰

难度：600-650

解析：

主干是The ESP was established .. by reformers advocating that prisoners be held in solitary confinement and hard labor so as to reform them.逻辑是监狱在1822年由改革者们建立，改革者主张把将囚犯单独监禁和劳役去改革他们。原文advocating that，后面强调的是主张的内容和既定事实，主张的是犯人被单独监禁和劳役为了去改变他们，逻辑有误，这里应该就直接点名主张的两种方式，不用that。So as to放一起表示为了，有in order to的含义

B项定从who修饰人，逻辑重心变。

C项正确，意为改革者倡导单独监禁，和用劳役作为改革他们的方式，逻辑清晰，点名是2种方式。

D项错误同B，for表为了错。

E项逻辑错，主张为了单独监禁和劳役作为一种方式？错

A不选的更主要的原因是reform them中的them指代不清（reformers or prisioners），语义上其实还是说得通的

D错： "for the means of prisoner reform" is wordy, unidiomatic A错： “held in hard labor" is unidiomatic

B哪里是重心改变了，明明是who were advocating，用了were doing形式，时态错误啊，不是吗

主动优于被动已经是很落后的看法了 RON的课上给了数据被动和主动是一半一半

港三冲啊回复528893liuzu

但是感觉很多时候做题，真的是更加偏向去选择主动，被动被选择的可能性有，但是不大

OG解析 E: the insertion of as the means for prisoner reform placed before ( rather than after) confinement and hard labor-the object of verb advocating-renders the reulting sentence unncecessarily awkward.

解析讲的不是很满意，我的理解是：A）so as to=in order to ，但其主语是reformer 还是prisoner 不清楚，而且them指代不清 B）their指代不明，to be held 将要做，不合句意 C）正确，平行正确，没有代词歧义，to do表示目的用得挺好 D）for the means of为了这种方式？？？不如C的to do呢 E）错误同D，且位置也有问题。关于解析说的句子重心那一套，看看就行见仁见智，网友逼逼赖赖也不是绝对正确。之前一段时间总被网友那套理论误导就很气。

原文：ESP监狱被改革者们建立，改革者主张把将囚犯单独监禁和劳役，（的目的是）为了（So as to）改造他们。
原文整体逻辑没错，细微处需改变。

A：be held in solitary confinement and hard labor，and前后关系错误，be held in hard labor；
B：定语从句who were，逻辑重心变化；and同A错误；
C：正确；
D：Who定语从句错误同B；for the means of 错误逻辑&搭配，for the means-为了手段？错；
E：意思逻辑与原文不同。
