标题: 大全923，未讨论过~赐教啊~

923...When the prime lending rates went up in 1987, economists determined they would cause interest rates to rise and then decline over the ensuing five-year period.

(A) they would cause interest rates to rise and then decline

(B) they would mean that interest rates would rise and then decline

(D) that the increase would cause interest rates to rise and then decline

(E) that the increase would cause interest rates’ rising and subsequent declining

我选的是E，觉得cause to do和cause+独立主格好像都差不多，无伤大雅的~

而且觉得D那里应该是cause to rise and to then decline…

被平行结构弄得不清不楚的，唉~但感觉上是要这样才平行...

恳请赐教...

cause ... to do ...是习惯用法。在D里面then是副词表明时间顺序。该宾语从句的结构是that the... cause...to rise and then (to此处被省略) decline... 两个to do结构的平行并列。在多个to do 结构的并列时，后面的to在不引起歧义的情况下可以省略。
