Prices at the producer level are only 1.3 percent higher now than a year ago and are going down, even though floods in the Midwest and drought in the South are hurting crops and therefore raised corn and soybean prices.

(A) than a year ago and are going down, even though floods in the Midwest and drought in the South are hurting crops and therefore raised
(B) than those of a year ago and are going down, even though floods in the Midwest and drought in the South are hurting crops and therefore raising
(C) than a year ago and are going down, despite floods in the Midwest and drought in the South, and are hurting crops and therefore raising
(D) as those of a year ago and are going down, even though floods in the Midwest and drought in the South hurt crops and therefore raise
(E) as they were a year ago and are going down, despite floods in the Midwest and drought in the South, and are hurting crops and therefore raising

答案：B
OG解析摘录：
（D）选项——“the tenses of the verbs in the latter half of the sentence, hurt (simple past) and raise (simple present), do not work together logically.”


问题：hurt原型与过去式相同，如果理解为hurt与raise都为一般现在时态，那么这个时态在这个句子中是合理的吗？

是这样的，OG的出题人和写解析的人并不是同一拨人，所以这个解析得慎重看待。。
