73. Analysts blamed May's sluggish retail sales on unexciting merchandise as well as the weather, colder and wetter than was usual in some regions，which slowed sales of barbecue grills and lawn furniture.
(A) colder and wetter than was usual in some regions，which slowed
(B) which was colder and wetter than usual in some regions，slowing
(C) since it was colder and wetter than usually in some regions，which slowed
(D) being colder and wetter than usually in some regions，slowing
(E) having been colder and wetter than was usual in some regions and slowed
The sentence must clearly indicate that the inclement weather had slowed retail sales．
Relative pronouns，such as which，should follow as closely as possible the nouns to which they refer．The adjective usual, rather than the adverb usually，is required when modifying a noun．The usage wetter than usual is correct and concise．
想问问，这里usual修饰谁？那C的usually怎么错了
答案: B
谢谢，版主真热心
另外，这题目OG上说到The adjective usual, rather than the adverb usually，is required when modifying a noun．这里usual应该有修饰什么名词啊，不知道修饰谁，怎么修饰的..呵呵
