(A) ranks as the nation’s third leading cause of death, surpassed only (B) rank as the nation’s third leading cause of death, only surpassed (C) has the rank of the nation’s third leading cause of death, only surpassed (D) are the nation’s third leading causes of death, surpassed only (E) have been ranked as the nation’s third leading causes of death, only surpassed 这道题我对答案没有疑惑，只是对OG的解释：Th e phrase following diabetes is set off by a pair of commas, indicating that it is descriptive information that may be dropped from the sentence; it is not a part of the subject.不太能理解。忘牛牛们帮助一下。另外，在SURPASSED前面加上and可以吗？作者: xingxc11 时间: 2011-8-17 15:59

呵呵，就是说你可以把‘together with its serious complications’ 拿掉来考虑主谓一致啊。作者: jj449 时间: 2011-9-11 10:13
这就是对“插入语”的英文解释~~ The phrase following diabetes is set off by a pair of commas, indicating that it is descriptive information that may be dropped from the sentence; it is not a part of the subject. 什么是插入语？提供描述性信息，非主语的一部分，逗号间的内容可以去掉不用考虑！ 因为它是插入语，所以不能在surpass前加and！and会是多余的！
