118.The World Wildlife Fund has declared that global warming, a phenomenon most scientists agree to be caused bv human beings in burning fossil fuels, will create havoc among migratory birds by altering the environment in ways harmful to their habitats.

(A)a phenomenon most scientists agree to be caused by human beings in burning fossil fuels,

(B)a phenomenon most scientists agree that is caused by fossil fuels burned by human beings,

(C)a phenomenon that most scientists agree is caused by human beings' burning of fossil fuels,

(D)which most scientists agree on as a phenomenon caused by human beings who burn fossil fuels,

(E)which most scientists agree to be a phenomenon caused by fossil fuels burned by human beings,

这一题答案选C。但是我不明白的是，这个句子结构本身a phenomenon应该是global warming的同位语修饰，如果选C，句子结构是a phenomenon( that most scientists agree) is caused by human beings' burning of fossil fuels, 是一个完整的句子，不需要前后链接词么？
如果是做插入语，如何去判断什么时候可以插入一个完整的句子呢？
谢谢！

自己顶一下。

相反，A选项解释说to be caused and in burning are wordy, awkward and indirect，不是很理解，求解释。

在1193—1395页赫然发现一个语法词条——嵌入式关系分句，详解如下：

“有一种关系分句（即定语从句），它既是先行项的后置修饰语（即定语），同时又是另外一个分句结构的宾语（即宾语从句）”此分句结构就被嵌入在定语从句中，即嵌入式关系分句。

该书举例：In his breast-pocket he had a patch of scarlet, which i suppose was the paper cap serving as a handkerchief.

注意两点：1）从句which was the paper cap serving as a handkerchief 首先是 patch of scarlet的定语从句。

2）从句which（patch of scarlet） was the paper cap serving as a handkerchief 也是i suppose 的宾语从句，即I suppose （that）the patch of scarlet was the paper cap serving as a handkerchief 。

综上所述，但一个定语从句同时是另一个主谓结构的宾语从句是，就可以写为嵌入式关系分句。

张正邦英语语法~ P1360
名词词组 + 名词性分句
名词分句做名词词组的同位语也是起说明作用，这种同位语分句通常由连词 that 或某些疑问词引导
例子
The idea that my watch might be wrong did not occur to me.

The hope that we will sooner or later succeed never deserted us.

2）表示属性
表示属性的非限制性同位语，是进一步说明前面同位语成分所代表事物的特征或类属，这种同位语相当于省略形式的关系分句。
The left San Francisco and headed for Philadelphia, an historic city where over two hundred years ago the Declaration of Independence was adopted and the American Constitution framed.

A 选项
意思是 global warming 是由 human being 导致的。意思不正确。in burning fossil fuel 会产生修饰歧义，修饰human being, 意思变成了在燃烧化石燃料中的人~In A, in burning fossil fuels seems to modify human beings, implying that these human beings are coming to a most unfortunate end. Eliminate A.

正确的意思应该是，global warming 是由 human being 的 burning fossil fuel 这个动作导致的~

同位语that不可省所以C
个人看法

DE不讨论了，AB各有各的问题。A，还原以后是 most scientists agree a phenomenon to be caused ...，这是破句。
B，还原以后是 most scientists agree a phenomenon that is caused ... 这不如agree + that来的好，wordy。
只有C还原以后是 most scientists agree that a phenomenon is caused ...
当然楼上也有说可以把most scientists agree看成插入语，如果LZ掌握了这个知识点，那解题更快了。

关于后半句的解释，楼主要先考察语义。这个现象是来自于人类对石油的燃烧，简而言之是来自于燃烧。A选项，把这个对象偷换成了人类，B选项偷换成了石油。并不是人类或者石油导致了这个现象，是燃烧导致了这个现象。人类和石油都是对燃烧进行修饰的，它们自己并不是中心词。
