原句句子结构：The success… has stimulated experts to pursue…
原句逻辑语义：消灭天花计划的成功刺激了专家来追求他们没有以前认为的可能——更好的控制，如果不能消灭，其他的传染病如麻疹和雅司病。

A. something代替名词从句，简洁；the other结构不完整，应该是one… the other搭配。
B. consider a possibility表达方式不及直接跟形容词简洁有效；such like搭配错误，应该是such as。
C. 正确。
D. consider应直接跟形容词，a previous possibility表达错误且改变了原意；control and perhaps eradication不符合逻辑，改变了原句意思；possibility与perhaps语意重复；other用错，没有搭配对象。
E. the possibility of what用法错误，应该用that；possibility与possibly重复；control and eradication不符合逻辑；用like表示举例错误。

other和such重复了，other和such都有限制infections的意思，所以保留一个就可以，因为有固定搭配，所以保留such 整体 as 局部，排除AD。such like是错误的搭配，在句中举例也用like，所以排除B E。最后C是正确的。

wordy要你吗

There are 2 problems with A.
- Major problem is "THE other infections." THE is too definitive here, carrying the connotation of "every single one of the other infections."
* THE is also incompatible with "such as":
- Correct: I never read this book, but I read the other books on the shelf.
- Correct: I never read this book, but I read other books on the shelf, such as "Right Hand, Left Hand" and "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich."
- Incorrect: I never read this book, but I read the other books on the shelf, such as "Right Hand, Left Hand" and "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich."
- Minor problem is "what they had not..." vs. "something they had not..." The "what" construction is awfully strong, suggesting that this was THE ONE THING they hadn't thought possible.
* As an analogy, compare the meanings of "I want to do what I love for a living" and "I want to do something I love for a living." The first suggests that the speaker has one particular field in mind; the second doesn't.

主要就是the other又wordy了，且它与后面的what相比起c选项都太definitive

the other 局限性太大了，目标分成两类，一类另一类，这也没有这样的明显分类，从句意看就是一类相关的病。

what和something引导句子的比较：what结构一般awfully strong，强调唯一性，即what后面是唯一的选择或者唯一的原因，一般认为过于绝对，something则是提供一种选择或者原因，语意不强烈：
something they don‘t consider 与 what they don't consider 第一个是存在他们没考虑到的什么，第二个是他们没有考虑到的是特指什么

A最大的错误在于 应该是 one...the other 前面没有one 所以后面不能用the other吧。。

other infections和the other infections:一般来说，infections后面还有其他内容来解释，比如such as...，前面就不用the other而要用other，因为the other相当于一限定和特指了，后面再进行解释就有点重复和多余。

Mary is much taller than the other girls。

玛丽比其他的女孩高得多。 玛丽比其他的女孩高得多。
说明the other是指其他的所有，非此即彼。所以在这里不正确，因为后面跟了such as和the other这个限定指代不符合

“Incorrect: I never read this book, but I read the other books on the shelf, such as "Right Hand, Left Hand" and "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich." ” 请问：这个错的原因是不是因为已经读过其他所有的书了，所以不用such as...?
