标题: 求解prep中一题

The cottontail rabbit population in Orange County, California, has increased unchecked in recent

years as a result of the removal of the native fox population and the clearing of surrounding

woodlands.

(A) years as a result of the removal of

(B) years as a result of removing

(D) years, which is a result of removing

(E) years, which is a result of the removal of
c为何不正确？状语从句不是表伴随结果的吗? 动名词形式和名词形式的优先是gmat的重点吗？多谢

考的是动词，remove的动词形式比名词好，所以从bd里面选，显然b更好。。。

可是可是~~~~~~答案是a選想呢,求助時忘記說了-_-

首先说C是不对的，
因为C里面which指代前面整个句子，在GMAT里是不允许的。

B是因为有歧义，removing the native fox指的是把fox给消灭或者迁移了，fox是被动的
原文是the removal of the native fox ，是指fox的主动迁移。

两者意义不一样。

明白lz的疑惑。
我认为C选项的“, resulting from”形式上貌似一个修饰前面整句话的结果状语，但逻辑意思不是讲的结果，而是原因！这是其一。
其二，抽象名词如果本身有名词形式，用名词形式而不用ing形式，如removal > removing, development > developing.

resulting from只能用作adj.性质, 不能用作adv.性质！

Manhattangmat的Ron解释：
“you can't use 'resulting from' as an adverbial modifier, as is done here. in general, 'resulting from' is only used as an adjective modifier, almost always without a comma, as in
the pollution resulting from the chemical spill forced all the local residents to evacuate.”

标题: 关于resulting from
另外一道涉及resulting from的题目（verbal分册SC#113）:

In A.D. 391, resulting from the destruction of the largest library of the ancient world at Alexandria, later generations lost all but the Iliad and Odyssey among Greek epics, most of the poetry of Pindar and Sappho, and dozens of plays by Aeschylus and Euripides.
(A) resulting from the destruction of the largest library of the ancient world at Alexandria,
(B) the destroying of the largest library of the ancient world at Alexandria resulted and
(C) because of the result of the destruction of the library at Alexandria, the largest of the ancient world,
(D) as a result of the destruction of the library at Alexandria, the largest of the ancient world,
(E) Alexandria's largest library of the ancient world was destroyed, and the result was

OA: D

选项A中，resulting from的逻辑主语为later generations，不合逻辑。而可以由resulting from修饰的名词有比如an error, a failure, the accident, etc.
