Simply because they are genetically engineered does not make it any more likely for plants to become an invasive or persistent weed, according to a decade-long study published in the journal Nature.

(A) because they are genetically engineered does not make it any more likely for plants to

(B) because it is genetically engineered does not make a plant any more likely to

(C) being genetically engineered does not make it any more likely that plants will

(D) being genetically engineered does not make a plant any more likely to

(E) being genetically engineered does not make a plant any more likely that it will become

答案是D，我选的是B

笔记上说B选项缺少数主语

我的理解是because it is genetically engineered 是主语，does not make谓语，a plant 是形式宾语不可以吗？

还有being不是GMAT的大忌吗？

请各位指教

because it is 怎么能是主语呢，主语得是个名词成分  because 是个连词后面是句子如何充当名词成分？

because从句是个原因状语从句，必须要有主句，也就是说不能单独出现

being不能作定语成分，也就是说n + being + adv肯定不对，因为作为定语being是多余的

但是做主语，作状语，或作进行时的一部分（I am being late! 我就要迟到了！）being不一定错（也不知道是不是一定对），错的时候基本都是因为多余

至于这个题，being引导了一个名词成分，不能去掉，其实就是类似一个动名词 playing basketball例如

都是个人经验，慎重参考~

没明白楼上的意思，从句不能作为主语吗？

Where he will go is unknown.

这里助于难道不是一个从句吗？

请指教

这个不是个从句，这也是个名词成分，其实前面是省略了place,也就是说（place） where he will go is unknown ，只不过约定俗成的我们都把place给省略了

because引导从句的时候是个连词，怎么也不可以作主语的~

where起码是个关系副词
