As rainfall began to decrease in the Southwest about the middle of the twelfth century, most of the Monument Valley Anasazi abandoned their homes to join other clans whose access to water was less limited.
A.whose access to water was less limited
B.where there was access to water that was less limited
C.where they had less limited water access
D.with less limitations on water access
E.having less limitations to water access

这个是老题了,
C/D 为什么错在http://forum.chasedream.com/thread-509685-1-1.html 里已经有讨论
我的问题是关于正确选项A
这里被修饰的先行词是other clans,复数。
从句主语“这些clans的accesses”应当用"whose accesses to water were  表复数比较好吧?可以接受单数的?那意思就变成了这些clans的一个access?

我当时就这么把A 排掉了。。。

hey buddy!
Pay attention to the word access , it is uncountable. So there is no such thing as "accessed";
e.g Students have full access to all resources.

where is choice B??

(B) Despite the fact that it covers the entire planet,
Earth's crust is neither seamless nor is it
stationary, but is

hey, man
first of all , we have to differ despite from although;
despite: It is a prep. not a conj. So it should only be followed by a noun;
although: It ia a conj and should be followed by a clause.

so we can eliminate E directly.

then we know that it is the earth's crust instead of the earth itself that covers the planet.

so we eliminate A.

in choice B, "despite the fact that" is wordy! so C &D is left.
in choice C, we must pay attention to the parallelism——neither...nor and "nor is it"makes that parallelism impossible.

So the correct answer is D!

Hope it helps!
