Both the Federal Reserve’s decision that borrowing rates be raised, along with investor’s speculation that another increase might be on the way, helped bolster the dollar in recent weeks by making deposits more attractive.
i just wanna confirm the reason of eliminating B
谢谢
我记得在另一关于指代的争议题中有版主认为不一定非得指代最近的词，也可根据题目的前后意思确定they指代的事物，请问难道考试中真的完全不管题意只是将they或it认为是指代离它最近的词吗？
Both the Federal Reserve’s decision that borrowing rates be raised, along with investor’s speculation that another increase might be on the way, helped bolster the dollar in recent weeks by making deposits more attractive.
A. that borrowing rates be raised, along with investor’s speculation that another increase might be on the way, helped bolster the dollar in recent weeks by making
B. that borrowing rates be raised and investors’ speculation of possibly another increase on the way helped to bolster the dollar in recent weeks because they made
C. to raise borrowing rates and investors’ speculation that another increase might be on the way helped to bolster the dollar in recent weeks by making
D. to raise borrowing rates, along with investors’ speculation that another increase might be on the way, helped bolster the dollar in recent weeks because it made
E. to raise borrowing rates and investors’ speculation of possibly another increase on the way helped bolster the dollar in recent weeks because they made
of 不如that表示清楚，
it，they 指代不清

楼上说的对，1、along with错 2、helped错，主语与谓语间不能用逗号隔开。
3、第三点与11楼不同，decision可以用that做定语进行修饰，只是本题若用that修饰导致被动，而且表达没有简洁反而冗余复杂。同时，decision to raise borrowing rates, 说明了美联储决策的目的，而且也是主动表达，自然优于用that对decision做定语修饰。
B. that borrowing rates be raised and investors’ speculation of possibly another increase on the way helped to bolster the dollar in recent weeks because they made
1、that的问题同A选项
2、 将might be 改为possibly不妥
3、与11楼不同，关于they指代，原则上是就近指代，但不绝对。我认为这个they是指代主语没问题，我认为是逻辑错误。
原文要说的是，美联储的贷款利率提升决策和投资人的投机性（贷款利率高了，自然就不投资转而存钱了）会支撑美元，通过使得储蓄更具吸引力。
B选项，用because，逻辑意思变为，因为他们让储蓄更具吸引力了，所以美联和投资人投机帮助了支撑美元，这是实际逻辑不符。
事实上，提高贷款利率，和投资人的投资性，主观客观上使得储蓄更具吸引力。逻辑上，颠倒了因果关系。
C. to raise borrowing rates and investors’ speculation that another increase might be on the way helped to bolster the dollar in recent weeks by making
1、to do 表明了政策要提利率
2、that 修饰了investors' speculation
D. to raise borrowing rates, along with investors’ speculation that another increase might be on the way, helped bolster the dollar in recent weeks because it made
错误同上，且 it 无指代
E. to raise borrowing rates and investors’ speculation of possibly another increase on the way helped bolster the dollar in recent weeks because they made
错误同上
一点浅见，请指正
Both the Federal Reserve’s decision that borrowing rates be raised, along with investor’s speculation that another increase might be on the way, helped bolster the dollar in recent weeks by making deposits more attractive.
A. that borrowing rates be raised, along with investor’s speculation that another increase might be on the way, helped bolster the dollar in recent weeks by making
B. that
borrowing rates be raised and investors’ speculation
of possibly another increase on the way helped to bolster the dollar in recent weeks because they made
C. ！to raise borrowing rates and investors’ speculation that another increase might be on the way helped to bolster the dollar in recent weeks by making
D. to raise borrowing rates, along with investors’ speculation that another increase might be on the way, helped bolster the dollar in recent weeks because it made
E. to raise borrowing rates and investors’ speculation of possibly another increase on the way helped bolster the dollar in recent weeks because they made
AD肯定错了，BCE讨论，D的it肯定指代错误。姑且不看they指代Both A and B中的AB可不可以（个人认为they指代没有问题），BE中加了because，这个是原文没有的一层逻辑意思，原文用by表示方式，所以排除BE，选C。这是我的解题思路。
open to discussion
同意13楼的分析
B 的错误在于两个：错用虚拟语气；错用因果逻辑。相比之下，they 指代主句的主语我觉得是可行和清晰的。
