The tourism commission has conducted surveys of hotels in the most popular resorts, with the ultimate goal of reducing the guests who end up expressing overall dissatisfaction with the service in the hotels.
(A) with the ultimate goal of reducing the guests who end up expressing overall dissatisfaction with the service in the hotels
(B) with the goal to ultimately reduce the number of guests who end up expressing overall dissatisfaction with the hotels’ service
(C) ultimately with the goal to reduce expressions of overall dissatisfaction by the guests with the hotel service
(D) in an ultimate attempt to reduce the number of guests that ends up expressing overall dissatisfaction with the hotels’ service
(E) with the ultimate goal of reducing the number of guests who express overall dissatisfaction with the hotels’ service

答案选E 这里有一点不明白 Manhattan里讲 subjects preceded by the numbr of -- singular subjects
看了下例句
A NUMBER OF dogs ARE barking.
THE NUMBER OF dogs IS large.

似乎的意思是说 如果是用 the number of  后面就要用单数形式的动词 可是这里为什么答案E选项给出的是express
而且指出了D选项应该改成 end up呢?

想了一下 是因为who/that 引导的都是从句修饰guests 后面没有具体的动词 所以都以guests为核心词吗?

express overall dissatisfaction是guest发出的动作,逻辑主语是guests,所以用复数形式

从句意上理解也可以确定这个是用复数,因为修饰的是guests
