标题: 2 GMAT grammar questions, please help!

Which one should be the answers of following questions? Could you please tell me Why that one is correct? Thanks very much!

1. Unlike their counterparts in other Western democracies, the American labor movement has never embraced revolutionary ideologies calling for the ultimate transformation of the economic order.

(D) Unlike that of its counterparts in other Western democracies, the American labor movement never has

(E) Unlike its counterparts in other Western democracies, the American labor movement has never

Why E is right? I am confused about the "its".

2. Corporations will soon be required to report to the government whether they have the necessary reserves to pay the pension benefits earned by their employees and that the information be published in annual reports to shareholders.

(B) that their employees earned and that the information be published

(D) earned by their employees, information that must also be published

Thanks very much!

D is the key. However, I don't know why.

第一题，its对应the American labor movement, 意思是unlike American labor movement's counterparts in other...

D的话，unlike that of its..里的that是错的，因为没有东西指代

第二题，B的话，整句就变成will soon be required to report...and that...，前面是不定式to report，后面是从句，不平行。D的话，information连带后面的整个定语从句是前面那个whether从句的同位语。
