PREP没有官方解释.....解释都是CD讨论和NN总结出来的,算不上100%的正确。

(A) one指代riskrisk in a million chances表达错误;risk of doing是习惯用语。

(B) 正确,one chance in a million用以修饰littlerisk of causing cancer是正确的表达方式。

(C) that it重复,前面已经有that presentit指代不清楚,无法指代复数名词toxic substances

(D) risk后面应该跟of doing,而不是for doing

(E) it指代不清楚;risk后面应该跟of doing,而不是to do
