标题: GMAT-10-28请教求解思路

In an effort to reduce the number of fires started by cigarettes, a major tobacco company is test-marketing a cigarette in which thin layers of extra paper are used to decrease the amount of oxygen entering the cigarette, thereby slowing the rate at which it burns and lowering the heat it generates.

	in which thin layers of extra paper are used to decrease the amount of oxygen entering the cigarette, thereby slowing
	in which they use thin layers of extra paper in decreasing the amount of oxygen entering the cigarette, which slows
	that uses thin layers of extra paper to decrease the amount of oxygen when it enters the cigarette, thereby slowing
	for which thin layers of extra paper are used to decrease the amount of oxygen that enters the cigarette, and thereby slowing
	using thin layers of extra paper in decreasing the amount of oxygen entering the cigarette, which slows

个人认为选A.

看每个选项的尾部差异,有thereby slowing, which slows, and thereby slowing

看题的未划线的尾部,

thereby slowing the rate at which it burns and lowering the heat it generates.

这里slowing和lowering是并列的,所以which slows错,排除B,E

这里用slowing而不用which slows还有一个原因,which就近指代的应该是a cigarette,slowing和lowering的动作并不是由烟发出的,而是这种烟里面的用来减少进入烟的氧气的数量的技术来slowing和lowering.

C项的问题在于it的指代有问题.从题的未划线部分来看, thereby slowing the rate at which it burns and lowering the heat it generates.it应该指代的是cigarette,而划线部分的it指代的是oxygen.

D项与A的差异在于,一个是in which,一个是for which;一个是thereby slowing,一个是and thereby slowing.从并列的角度来看,thereby slowing应该是和后面的and lowering来平行.加上and后就是和前面的to decrease来平行了,所以不对.从句意来看,是在这种烟里面用了这样的技术,所以in which没有错误.

不知道这样解释是否合理,希望大家指正.

C可不可以这样理解：cigarette不可能主动use thin layer…，其逻辑意思要求使用被动形式。请NN指点
