我的问题有三：
1有.encourage to do /encourage sth的用法，题中encourage doing的用法对不对？
2.with no demond for sth 比there be 结构更简洁，为什么不用？
3.B比C优，就是因为even though 后面没有用there be 句型吗？
谢谢！
encourage
verb [T] (Cambridge Dictionary of American English )
to help (someone) to feel confident and able to do something, or strongly to advise (someone) to do something
Our parents always encouraged us to ask questions.------------encourage sb to do sth
If something encourages an activity, it supports it or makes it more likely: The city needs to encourage job creation.------------------encourage sth
another usage is : encourage sb in sth(but in Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary )
to talk or behave in a way that gives someone confidence to do something:
They've always encouraged me in everything I've wanted to do.
2.with no demond for sth 比there be 结构更简洁，为什么不用？
with 结构表示的是一种伴随状态，C中there are exceptionally high vacancy rates in existing structures with no demand for new construction. 中WITH修饰的是vacancy rates，从意思上
逻辑不用，所以错。
3.B比C优，就是因为even though 后面没有用there be 句型吗？
B的意思清晰，结构清楚，没有歧义
even though vacancy rates in existing structures are exceptionally high and there is no demand for new construction 表明了两个同时存在的条件，一是空住率高，二是对新房子没有需求
我的体会是GMAT没有定式，虽然要求简洁，但是意思逻辑清楚没有歧义是基本，有时候不能光看形式，共勉！
一看到there is，我就把B排除了。。。不是说there is只能用于某处有某物吗？郁闷！
借此题问一下with的跳跃修饰。这里with是修饰rates吗？为什么呢？是因为和in existing structures一样，介词短语并列修饰吗？会不会有修饰structures的歧义呢？

demand的动作发出者不应该是rate，所以，从逻辑上讲，with没有合理的修饰对象，无论rate还是structure都可能成为潜在的修饰对象，但两者从逻辑上讲不通。
偶觉得with和其它介词在修饰对象上应该是一样的，即优先修饰离其最近的名词。
不同的是，with可以引导独立主格结构。
那就是说，在本题优先修饰structure了？
我总有个模糊的印象，好像做到过一些题，两个介词短语连着，并列修饰同一个名词。抱歉想不起例子了。不知道是不是有这种情况？

－是的

－偶不记得有这种情况，但是有名词+with介词短语+定语从句的，后两者同时修饰前面的名词。
LES,这种情况,是两个介词短语共同作状语修饰一个动作, 还是后一个介词短语修饰前一个year?
1. Inflation in medical costs slowed in 1986 for the fifth consecutive year but were still about 50 percent greater than the rate of price increases for other items included in the consumer price index.
(A) Inflation in medical costs slowed in 1986 for the fifth consecutive year but were
(B) Inflation in medical costs slowed for the fifth consecutive year in 1986 but was
(C) In 1986 inflation in medical costs were slowed for the fifth consecutive year but were
(D) 1986 was the fifth consecutive year in which inflation in medical costs slowed but was（B）
(E) 1986 was the fifth consecutive year that inflation in medical costs were slowed, but they were
Inflation in medical costs slowed for the fifth consecutive year in 1986 but was
偶觉得in 1986和for the fifth consecutive都是做状语修饰slowed。
