A,B中的错误很明显吧, a United States citizen hold应该是holds.

choice d doesn't do that: it writes 'because of a law', where 'a law' is definitely a noun. (the subsequent modifier 'making it a crime...' modifies 'law', and is not associated with 'because of')

E. 之所以错的原因是,due to后面加的果应该是noun,而不是整句话:

Due to should be followed by a noun. Also, this must DESCRIBE a noun. it is commonly used in speech to describe entire clauses/sentences/ideas, but that usage is wrong in the written language.
e.g.
unemployment due to offshoring is rising in factory towns. <-- here, "due to..." describes "unemployment"
much of the unemployment in factory towns is due to offshoring.
BUT
James was late due to the traffic <-- this is incorrect; you can't use "due to..." to describe an entire
sentence/clause (such as "James was late").

所以E里面变成了immigrants是因为the law

Ron说

a, b, c can all be eliminated because of improper idiomatic usage: the proper idiom is '...a crime for blah blah blah to hold...'
'with' in choice b is also bad: it seems to imply that immigrants arrived with the law in their hands.
choice c implies that the immigrants themselves are 'a law passed in 19xx' (analogy: 'an accomplished pianist, jay made a nice living playing at weddings' - jay is an accomplished pianist. same reading applies to this sentence, although it's considerably longer and more difficult to parse)

--

choice e changes the meaning of the sentence: taken literally, it says that the immigrants found themselves in this unenviable situation not because of the law itself, but because of the passage of the law. although somewhat plausible, this is not the intent of the original sentence.

我不觉得Ron解释每次解释的都很好,至少这次不好……

我觉得E的更好解释是,这个law已经被通过了  用 being passed 则表示一个正在进行的被动语态,不对。而且ron也没有发现abc 三个选项hold错了,所以我真的觉得Ron的解释只能作参考,CD上有不少人很多选项都比Ron解释的好。
