Q23:

For the first time in the modern era, non-Hispanic Whites are officially a minority in California, which amounts to a little less than half the population of the state, down from nearly there-quarters only a decade ago.

which amounts to a little less than half the population of the state, down from nearly three-quarters only a decade ago
which amounts to a little less than half the population of the state, down from a decade ago, when it was nearly three-quarters
and that amounts to a little less than half the population of the state, down from a decade ago, when they were nearly three-quarters
amounting to a little less than half the population of the state, down from nearly three-quarters a decade ago
amounting to a little less than half the population of the state, down from what it was a decade ago by nearly three-quarters

Answer: D，MINE：A，

为何不用which从句修饰a minority?

在GMAT当中也有不少例子WHICH是跳跃修饰前面的中心词的啊，是否有其他原因？

同问,应该怎样区分是就近修饰还是跳跃的修饰呢

ETS对于which 的用法相当活，就近修饰或是跳跃修饰的情况都有，这个已经有很多人讨论过了。我觉得这题单从语感上讲我选A，因为only 这个词的强调作用，其他选项都没有。

which 修饰的是california了

如果说这里Which跳跃修饰了前面主句的中心词，那么这个中心词只能是non-Hispanic Whites。

而这里的Whites是复数形式，那么Which之后就应该用Amount，而不是Amounts。

所以，A,B,C都不对。
