For the first time in the modern era, non-Hispanic Whites are officially a minority in California, which amounts to a little less than half the population of the state, down from nearly there-quarters only a decade ago.

A. which amounts to a little less than half the population of the state, down from nearly three-quarters only a decade ago

B. which amounts to a little less than half the population of the state, down from a decade ago, when it was nearly three-quarters

C. and that amounts to a little less than half the population of the state, down from a decade ago, when they were nearly three-quarters

D. amounting to a little less than half the population of the state, down from nearly three-quarters a decade ago

E. amounting to a little less than half the population of the state, down from what it was a decade ago by nearly three-quarters

答案是D，虽然但是选对了。但是现在发现D也有问题。那个a decade ago会不会有歧义啊：到底是在a decade ago就down from 还是那个three-quarters是decade ago的？

大家来看看那？

第一个解释从句以上不通，前面用的是现在时说明不到一半是现在的数据，怎么能10年前就已经从四分之三降到了一半？

另外要表达第二个意思貌似也找不出更有效简洁的方式了...逻辑上判断吧
