presidential election.

E. A new study of the 2000

United States

presidential election, citing faulty voting equipment, confusing ballots, voter error, and problems at polling places, has estimated 4 million to 6 million votes had not been counted of the 100 million votes cast.

个人觉得是很好的题目，ACE的错误都很好找，可是D中哪里错了不清楚，是否是cite的用法有误？

过去完成时应该有一个明确的过去的过去，而且前面是现在完成时啊，不可能表过去的过去的

A. Faulty voting equipment, confusing ballots, voter error, and problems at polling places have been cited by a new study of the 2000 United States presidential election, which estimated that they did not count 4 million to 6 million of the 100 million votes cast.

B. Citing faulty voting equipment, confusing ballots, voter error, and problems at polling places, a new study of the 2000 United States presidential election has estimated that 4 million to 6 million of the 100 million votes cast were not counted.

D.      A new study
            has cited [
        faulty voting equipment, confusing ballots, voter error, and problems at polling places in estimating
            { that 4 million to 6 million of the 100 million (votes that were cast) }
         had not been counted in the 2000 United States presidential election. ]

E. A new study of the 2000

United States

C分詞的描述對象變成是4 million to 6 million of the 100 million votes cast，語意完全不對。

D cited之後應該要接以that為首的名詞子句(紅色[ ]的地方)，省略不應該省的that.再則，這個子句裡結構過於複雜，不簡潔，所以也不選。faulty voting equipment, confusing ballots, voter error, and problems的真正動詞應該是had not been counted，當中又用了兩個that子句 { that……..cast} 應該是名詞子句，(vote that were cast)的that 應該是形容詞子句

E 則是使用的時態錯誤。過去完成時應該有一個明確的過去的過去，而且前面has estimated是現在完成時啊，不可能使用had not been counted。

我來試試看解答這問題,若解得不對,歡迎指教.謝謝

A. Faulty voting equipment, confusing ballots, voter error, and problems at polling places have been cited by a new study of the 2000 United States presidential election, which estimated that they did not count 4 million to 6 million of the 100 million votes cast.

B. Citing faulty voting equipment, confusing ballots, voter error, and problems at polling places, a new study of the 2000 United States presidential election has estimated that 4 million to 6 million of the 100 million votes cast were not counted.

C. Citing faulty voting equipment, confusing ballots, voter error, and problems at polling places, 4 million to 6 million of the 100 million votes cast were not counted in the 2000 United States presidential election, a new study estimates.

D. A new study

E. A new study of the 2000 United States presidential election, citing faulty voting equipment, confusing ballots, voter error, and problems at polling places, has estimated 4 million to 6 million votes had not been counted of the 100 million votes cast.

A錯在which的先行詞錯誤，合理的先行詞應該是study.

C分詞的描述對象變成是4 million to 6 million of the 100 million votes cast，語意完全不對。

D cited之後應該要接以that為首的名詞子句(紅色[ ]的地方)，省略不應該省的that.再則，這個子句裡結構過於複雜，不簡潔，所以也不選。faulty voting equipment, confusing ballots, voter error, and problems的真正動詞應該是had not been counted，當中又用了兩個that子句 { that……..cast} 應該是名詞子句，(vote that were cast)的that 應該是形容詞子句
