一般英语语法可以指人，但好像GMAT的语法里that是不可以指人的

我刚才翻到一个！！！！og17-sc-740

The tourism commission has conducted surveys of hotels in the most popular resorts, with the ultimate goal of reducing the guests who end up expressing overall dissatisfaction with the service in the hotels.
(A) with the ultimate goal of reducing the guests who end up expressing overall dissatisfaction with the service in the hotels.
(B) with the goal to ultimately reduce the number of guests who end up expressing overall dissatisfaction with the hotels' service
(C) ultimately with the goal to reduce expressions of overall dissatisfaction by the guests with the hotel service
(D) in an ultimate attempt to reduce the number of guests that ends up expressing overall dissatisfaction with the hotels' service
(E) with the ultimate goal of reducing the number of guests who express overall dissatisfaction with the hotels' service
(A) with the ultimate goal of reducing the guests who end up expressing overall dissatisfaction with the service in the hotels.
"Reducing the guests" is illogical, when compared with "reducing the number of guests" in other answer choices. "Reducing the guests" might mean shrinking them down somehow! Furthermore, "end up expressing overall dissatisfaction" is redundant. If it's overall, we know that that's where they end up.
(B) with the goal to ultimately reduce the number of guests who end up expressing overall dissatisfaction with the hotels' service
"with the goal to" is not idiomatic; "with the goal of" is correct in this structure.
"ultimately" has switched positions - it is now modifying "reduce" rather than "goal," creating a slight meaning change.
"end up" is again redundant.
(C) ultimately with the goal to reduce expressions of overall dissatisfaction by the guests with the hotel service
"ultimately" is now modifying "with," making this an expression of time, rather than giving us information about the goal.
There is a slight meaning difference between reducing the number of guests who express dissatisfaction, and reducing "expressions of overall dissatisfaction." The number of expressions total? The number of different types of expression?
"dissatisfaction by the guests" is not as clearly expressed as it is in other answer choices.
(D) in an ultimate attempt to reduce the number of guests that ends up expressing overall dissatisfaction with the hotels' service
We can't say "guests that." For people, we always use "who."
"ends up" is again redundant.
在gmat club找到的关于D项的解释说guests用who来修饰

我在gmat club找到了这个题说
D) in an ultimate attempt to reduce the number of guests that ends up expressing overall dissatisfaction with the hotels’ service -> 'that' cannot be used to refer to people (i.e. guests). So, eliminate.
