With its plan to develop seven and a half acres of shore land, Cleveland is but one of a large number of communities on the Great Lakes that is looking to its waterfront as a way to improve the quality of urban life and attract new businesses. (A) is looking to its waterfront as a way to improve the quality of urban life and attract (B) is looking at its waterfront to improve the quality of urban life and attract (C) are looking to their waterfronts to improve the quality of urban life and attract (D) are looking to its waterfront as a way of improving the quality of urban life and attracting (E) are looking at their waterfronts as a way they can improve the quality of urban life and attract 答案:C 我觉得最后的and attract应该与 that后那个 is looking平行。选D
D选项存在单复数不一致的问题，前面that 修饰的是the Great Lakes 所以是 are 和their
另外：从句子的意思来看 improve the quality of urban life 和 attract new businesses 是并列的意思 是as a way 的具体内容！当然咯，as a way 应该改成to因为此处有明显的表示“目的”的 意图，GMAC 更加prefer 用 to improve 而不是as a way of improving 这样会显得wordy
