School integration plans that involve busing between suburban and central-city areas have contributed, according to a recent study, to significant increases in housing
integration, which, in turn, reduces any future need for busing.

(A) significant increases in housing integration, which, in turn, reduces
(B) significant integration increases in housing, which, in turn, reduces
(C) increase housing integration significantly, which, in turn, reduces
(D) increase housing integration significantly, in turn reducing
(E) significantly increase housing integration, which, in turn, reduce

请教各位大侠，
选(a)是因为主词是 housing integration吗?
我不懂的是主词为什么不是increases in housing integration呢? 这样句意看来似乎也是通顺的。

不太明白你的意思，但increases in 是标准用法啊！

嗯…我是在想这句的句意是指说：

housing integration....reduces any future need for...

or

increases in housing integration...reduce any future need for...

因为我觉得翻译成“housing integration的增加减少了未来…的需要”似乎也是通顺的！

谢谢gemj及各位的指教！

可以从两个方面来判断究竟是housing integration做主语，还是increase in housing integration做主语。

1、看修饰school integration plans的定语从句，它讲的就是这个integration本身和busing的联系；所以对于另一种integration，就是housing integration，也应该是这个integration本身和busing联系，而不是integration的increase。
2、是“房屋集中”reduce busing，而不是“房屋集中这种现象的增加”reduce busing。这就象是“你努力复习gmat”增加了你考高分的可能性，而不是“你努力复习gmat的程度的加深”增加了你考高分的可能性。当然，从中文上理解，后者似乎也可。但是在这句句子里强调的是integration，而不是increase。

我想我可以体会其中的不同了…

谢谢fdkbaby大侠的协助！
