The investigations of many psychologists and anthropologists support the generalization of there being little that is a significant difference in the underlying mental processes manifested by people from different cultures.

(A) of there being little that is a significant difference

(B) of there being little that is significantly different

(C) of little that is significantly different

(D) that there is little that is significantly different

(E) that there is little of significant differences

OA is D.

But I cannot find the error of E.

Can anyone help explain it? Thank you.

首先，严重同意楼上的观点。

第二，对little that 和little of 的区别和为什么little of 不行，我在cd上又搜了一下，也有人有同样的问题。http://forum.chasedream.com/dispbbs.asp?BoardID=23&ID=248236&replyID=&skin=1

但是，没有答案。

第三，如果一定要在单复数不一致以外，在找出什么错误来，我想little of significant difference 的逻辑点在于：首先significant difference是存在的，但是在这里领域是很小的，或者说发现的只是其中很小的一块。而little that is significantly different的逻辑点在于：首先是不同文化间的差距是小的，其次在说这个差距指的是signicant差距。在反种族歧视、文化歧视的今天，文章想说的应该是第二种情况。

当然，为了找理由而找的理由，有的时候并不是理由。

thanks.
