标题: OG13-86
In 2000, a mere two dozen products accounted for half the increase in spending on prescription drugs, a phenomenon that is explained not just because of more expensive drugs but by the fact that doctors are writing many more prescriptions for higher-cost drugs.
(A) a phenomenon that is explained not just because of more expensive drugs but by the fact that doctors are writing
(B) a phenomenon that is explained not just by the fact that drugs are becoming more expensive but also by the fact that doctors are writing
(C) a phenomenon occurring not just because of drugs that are becoming more expensive but because of doctors having also written
(D) which occurred not just because drugs are becoming more expensive but doctors are also writing
(E) which occurred not just because of more expensive drugs but because doctors have also written
答案是B

请教下C中 not just because of drugs that .... but because of doctors .... 不是平行的吗？"that are becoming more expensive"定语从句修饰"drugs"; "having also written many more prescriptions for higher-cost drugs " 动宾形式修饰"doctors"。是不是由于"having also written"的时态错应该用"writing"啊？！

但OG解释说是：The phrasing drugs that are becoming and doctors having also written are awkward and confusing; the placement of also is incorrect. 那么awkward and confusing在哪里呢？

请NN来回答下吧！！

虽然两个子句的主语平行，但是动词不平行啊，一个是一般进行时，一个是“进行完成时“。having written的使用不正确，用一般进行时就可以了。also的出现使固定搭配not...but...变成了not...but...also之嫌，破坏了固定搭配。你到底是要用not...but...还是not only...but also...呢？

感谢victor198506的答复。我想having written 肯定是不对的，再怎么说也该用writing。让我恍然大悟啊

agreed~
而且觉得好像一般很少用because of sb. doing这样的结构，表达方式上似乎不大好，这样不如直接用because从句

而且语义也不对，原句主要说的是药品越来越贵，以及医生开药方这些事情会导致的现象，而C是说药品和医生，强调的对象也不一样。
