Caribou are wary animals

Caribou are wary animals with excellent hearing, so stalking them over the treeless landscape, getting close enough to kill it with nothing but a handheld lance, as Dorset people did, required exceptional hunting skill.

A. so stalking them over the treeless landscape, getting close enough to kill it
B. so to stalk them over the treeless landscape and get close enough to kill one
C. so in order to stalk them over the treeless landscape and get close enough to kill one
D. and so in order to stalk it over the treeless landscape, getting close enough to kill it
E. and so stalking them over the treeless landscape and getting close enough in order to kill it

OA B

I read in Kaplan Verbal that "one" can refer to only "one" as the antecedent. So why is the option not following this rule? Or is the rule incorrect?

Kaplan says that the following sentence is wrong

A person should leave light on in an empty house if one wants to give impression that someone is at home------Kaplan says this construction is wrong.

Because of this rule i was not able to see any answer choice as correct? Please let me know is this rule correct or am i wrong somewhere?

Also i did the following

d) and e) use ", and so" incorrcetly....... only ",so" is sufficient and doesn't create a run-on .Also in these options we need plural pronouns as "animals" is plural

a) "it" in-correct

b) and c)rejected by the above rule......!

Hi,

What is wrong with "B" here. B seems perfect for this question. C is wordier and "in order to' seems redundant here....

What is the source of the question?
Thanks and Regards,

[spoiler]The Official Answer is B, not C![/spoiler]

You can eliminate ADE because it should be them, not it.
You can eliminate C because "in order to" is no subject. "to + infinitive" can be a subject.
Thus The Answer is B.

You can eliminate all choices with 'it' since it doesnt follow subject-verb agreement.
Out of the 2 remaining choices, 'in order to' is not required and sounds wordy.
So, final answer B.

sentence starts with Caribou " are", hence all references to "it" at the end incorrect.- A,D and E.

C, "in order to is incorrect"
B. is correct among the choices available

I think the example that you read in Kaplan is referring to the use of "one" as a subject pronoun

Compare the following:

"A person should leave light on in an empty house if one wants to give impression that someone is at home"

The subject of the first sentence is "a person" and the subject of the second clause is "one." You shouldn't use one as a SUBJECT pronoun.

So for example you might say, "A person should leave light on in an empty house if he or she wants to give impression that someone is at home"

Or even better, "People should leave light on in an empty house if they wans to give impression that someone is at home"

In the caribou example, the caribou is the subject at the beginning, but then becomes the object in the second clause. Consider the sentence as two clauses:

"Caribou are wary animals...." "To stalk them and get close enough to kill one required...skill"

Notice that in the second clause the subject is the action of "to stalk and to get close enough to kill one"

The "one" is WHAT gets stalked and approached close enough to to be killed. The WHAT is the object. Using "one" as an object is fine.

Hopefully that helps!
