5. Diabetes, together with its serious complications,
ranks as the nation’s third leading cause of death,
surpassed only by heart disease and cancer.
(A) ranks as the nation’s third leading cause of
death, surpassed only
(B) rank as the nation’s third leading cause of death,
only surpassed
(C) has the rank of the nation’s third leading cause
of death, only surpassed
(D) are the nation’s third leading causes of death,
surpassed only
(E) have been ranked as the nation’s third leading
causes of death, only surpassed

surpassed only by heart disease and cancer.这个修饰的是否是third leading cause of death 还是 diabetes?
照理应作名noun modifier，修饰其前面的名词。
请问是否正确？
谢谢各位大牛，有理了。

我认为是前面名词。
