Q6: After more than four decades of research and development, a new type of jet engine is being tested that could eventually propel aircraft anywhere in the world within two hours or help boost cargoes into space at significantly lower costs than current methods permit.

A.      tested that could eventually propel aircraft anywhere in the world within two hours or help

B.      tested that could eventually have the capability of propelling aircraft anywhere in the world within two hours or to help

C.      tested, eventually able to propel aircraft anywhere in the world within two hours, or helping

D.      tested, and it eventually could propel aircraft anywhere in the world within two hours or helping（E）

E.       tested, and it could eventually have the capability to propel aircraft anywhere in the world within two hours or help

为什么是e不是a？

各位大牛，再看看，a的错误到底在哪里啊？？

如果以前讨论过，我怎么搜索不出来呢？（按题号和内容都做过）topvterminato帮忙告诉一下吧。

谢谢！

如果that限定词不可与前面的修饰词隔开是硬规则就好选了。但是看多了题，that被分隔的情况不止一次吧，如大全：

639. Severe and increasing numerous critics are pointing to deficiencies in the British legal system, deficiencies that seem to deny a proper defense to many clients who are charged with crimes.

(A) Severe and increasing numerous critics are pointing to deficiencies in the British legal system, deficiencies that seem

(B) Severe and increasing numerous critics point to deficiencies in the British legal system, deficiencies seeming

(C) Severe and increasingly numerous critics are pointing to deficiencies in the British legal system that seem

(D) Severely and increasingly numerous critics point to deficiencies in the British legal system seeming（C）

(E) Severely and increasingly numerous critics are pointing to deficiencies in the British legal system that seem

A 中的THAT 从句是用来修饰主语的  因为修饰语太长 所以放在句尾

E 中的  COULD capability 重复

应该选A

看看CNN的headline:

New Drug Being Tested That Could Help Sex Lives of Both Men and Women

再看看地方台的headline

Currently, a vaccine is being tested that could wipe out lung cancer.

E 中的 COULD capability 重复

应该选A

absolutely right!!

坚决同意楼上的，我一开始就把E排除掉了，因为COULD和CAPABILITY意思重复，
