If I'm not mistaken this question is from a pretty old version of the OG...

Just a quick note here - I think most would look at this as an idiomatic thing (modeled...after), but you can actually use pure logic and strategy here.

The use of "mother's" and "wife's" in A could apply the possessive to either "face" or "statue", so it's unclear.

In C and E, it's illogical (or at least less logical) that he'd make the FACE OF the statue look like his mother (not just her face) and the body look like his wife (not just her body).

And in D, there's the same error as in C/E, but the use of "after" without "that of" is also kind of confusing...did his mother make the face of the statue before he did? Or was she the model? Yeah, it's unidiomatic, but it's also really illogical and confusing.


I remember teaching this problem as an idiom problem back in like 2003 or so. If only I knew then what I know now... This one is perfectly logical if you think about it.
