preventing不能名词化,所以D不对

A和D中的they代词指代都有问题的,逻辑上是companies,但前面紧接的有workers

貌似by 后面常跟v-ing + n,through后面常跟v-ed + n。

路过NN确认一下

还是很难说服我自己,难道这道题真的就是根据上面的原则?

那么A为什么错,如果把annually去掉,那么A就是through improving,而前面是by preventing。

Prep对A的解释为“improving表示动作的过程,而这里的逻辑意思应该是performance已经被提高,其结果造成了$200 billion的收益


但前面仍然可以说,是prevent了,其结果是造成了save $58 billion 。实在不明白这两个-ing和-ed的用法。

求指教。
