customers to keep records private.
(A) by failing to honor its promise to its customers to keep
(B) by its failure of honoring its promise to its customers to keep
(C) in its failing to honor its promise to its customers of keeping
(D) because of its failure in honoring its promise to its customers in keeping
(E) because of its failure to honor its promise to its customers of keeping
本题的A选项我个人觉得有点争议。 后面的by doing结构有修饰前面的accused的嫌疑。这样的话,语义完全不对,如果换成将by换成in会更好点
