That twenty-one ceramic dog figurines were discovered during the excavating of a 1,000-year-old Hohokam village in Tempe, Arizona, has nearly doubled the number of these artifacts known to exist.
That twenty-one ceramic dog figurines were discovered during the excavating EThe discovery of twenty-one ceramic dog figurines during the excavation
答案E无异议，就是想知道，如果A项改为That twenty-one ceramic dog figurines were discovered during the excavation带入句中是否正确
Some of the above posters are right to point out that there isn't a grammatical problem with (A) because its subject is the noun clause that twenty-one ceramic dog figurines were discovered during the excavating of a 1,000-year-old Hohokam village in Tempe, Arizona. Yes, this entire clause is the subject, and as it begins with "that" it's singular, agreeing with the verb "has." However, it's extraordinarily awkward to use such a long noun clause to begin a sentence. Furthermore, noun clauses rarely make sense as the subjects of transitive verbs, and are much more often the subjects of the verb "to be" than anything else.
