这是og10的第67题 ，官方解释是
Choices A, C, and E are ungrammatical because, in this context, requiring ... employers must be followed by an infinitive. These options display additional faults: in A, so as to fails to specify that the workers receiving the leave will be the people caring for the infants and children; in order that they, as used in C, is imprecise and unidiomatic; and E says that the bill being debated would require the employers themselves to care for the children. Choice B offers the correct infinitive, to provide, but contains the faulty so as to. Choice D is best.
对于so as to的解释是so as to fails to specify that the workers receiving the leave will be the people caring for the infants and children
朗文字典里面对so as to的解释是=in order to。所以我个人不信服所谓“so as to 在gmat里面是必错”。在这题里面只能说用了so as to之后 整个句子淡化了workers，变成整个bill的目的是caring for the infants and childeren.
