(C) like the financial success of the 1992 Olympic Games demonstrates

(D) a fact demonstrated by the 1992 Olympic Games, which were financially successful（E）

(E) as the financial success of the 1992 Olympic Games demonstrates

此题为何不能选B啊?

I think the main problem here is "were", for Olympic Games is a singlar noun here.

As to the interpretation of LES, I think we can use that way, for example, there is a sentence in "AWA七宗罪"之gratuitous assumption.

In fact, this is not necessarilly the case. For example, it is more likely that...

I don't know whether this sentence is right, please help me to correct it. thanks

你举的例子没错。但是请注意，例句与本题的区别，例句中for example只是一个简单句中的副词修饰整个句子。而原题中由于有两个分句，必需由连词连接，而B中没有。换句话说，“，”和 "for example"都不可以连接两个独立分句。

B选项代入原句：
International sporting events need not be fiscal disasters, for example, the 1992 Olympic Games were financially successful.

In fact, this is not necessarilly the case. For example, it is more likely that...

类似考法的词还有一个furthermore.

P.S.你说的were的判断方法也是许多NN的说法，不过偶觉得这题用偶的办法更好、更快地判断。
