do not use "there is/are" or noun when action verb can be used because use of verb is simple,direct, vigorous and concise (I know this from reading "10 lessions in style", you can read part relevant, do not read it all. it is long). C, D are out

1.    According to a recent study by Rutgers University, the number of women in state legislatures has grown in every election since 1968.
(A) the number of women in state legislatures has grown
(B) the number of women who are in state legislatures have grown
(C) there has been growth in the number of women in state legislatures
(D) a growing number of women have been in state legislatures
(E) women have been growing in number in state legislatures


按大全解释,前者只相当于 a group of women
D:  a growing number of women...   只说明 ‘越来越多的女性’....
A:  the number of women                是说 ‘女性的人数’ ...


两都分别代入:
D:....调查表明,自1968年后的每次选举 越来越多女性出现在/参与州议会。
A:....调查表明,自1968年后的每次选举 州议会的女性人数都有所增加
(翻译水平有限,请忽略)


D错在:
句子中心应该是“女性人数增加” 而不是‘女性..(做了什么)..’
D项主语变了,中心也跟着变了


且a growing number of women (越来越多女性)----非具体数据
the number of women(女性人数)   ----指具体数据 (这正是该调查想要说明的)
