选B~ D、E没有用'that'引导宾语从句，直接排除！ A在逗号后用'resulting from'，语法错误 'possibly as a result of increasing'是用来修饰'dwindling of food supplies'而不是'food supplies',这样排除A、C作者: sumerlaw 时间: 2009-12-28 19:26

bingo, 你能给我详细的讲解下A 中的resulting from 的用法吗？谢谢作者: angel0428 时间: 2009-12-28 19:39
这里是ManhatanGmat论坛里的一个回复
consensus is that you just can't have 'resulting from' after a comma.
you can have it as an adjective modifier, without a comma - as in the following sentence:
the flooding resulting from the abnormally strong storms had left six inches of standing water in the street.
note that the boldface is an adjective modifier, modifying 'flooding'.
it appears that on the gmat, as well as in standard written english in general, 'resulting from' after a comma is generally considered unacceptable.
choice b features the standard use of a prepositional phrase as an adverb modifier:
'(possibly) as a result of', like other prepositional phrases that follow commas, serves to modify the action of the preceding clause (i.e., were dwindling). this is totally standard usage, so make sure you know it.

那个我之前看过了，还是谢谢，但是为什么，逗号+resulting from 就不行呢？
