109, An attempt to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment, begun almost two decades ago, has been unsuccessful despite efforts by many important groups, including the National Organization for Women.
(A) to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment, begun almost two decades ago,(A)
(B) begun almost two decades ago, for ratifying the Equal Rights Amendment× to should be used to show purpose
(C) begun for ratifying the Equal Rights Amendment almost two decades ago× to should be used to show purpose
(D) at ratifying the Equal Rights Amendment, begun almost two decades ago,× the correct idiom should be attempt to do sth
(E) that has begun almost two decades ago to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment× has to be past tense

Pointer:
1, idiom-attempt to do sth
2, placement of modifie- the modifier “begun almost two decades ago” refers to attempt, because if it is for ERA, “,” is not needed.
"begun almost two decades ago" is a modifying phrase, it omits has been.
3, verb tense
In E, present perfect is the wrong verb tense to use, despite its apparent consistency with "has been unsuccessful". Present perfect is typically used for actions that began in the past and continue into the present. It can also be used to specify a past event at an indefinite point in the past. Here, the "two decades ago" makes present perfect an incorrect tense. Consider "I have lived in New York five years ago." -- doesn't sound right and it isn't right.

The correct answer is A.

大家好, 这是1000SC 大全第109题, 我选的E, 看网上评论排除E 是用的时态, has begun almost two decades ago 应该用一般过去时, 但我觉得正确答案A里面不也是一样的用法吗?
begun almost two decades ago 明显的完成时, 只是将HAS 省略掉了而已, 求解答!!

不是大牛,试着回答一下。A中的begun表示被动,不是完成时。完成时的has/have是不能被省略的,除非并列的时候可以共用
