请教大牛，一道OG上的题

guanjusishui

Defense attorneys have occasionally argued that their clients’ misconduct stemmed from a reaction to something ingested, but in attributing criminal or delinquent behavior to some food allergy, the perpetrators are in effect told that they are not responsible for their actions.    
(A) in attributing criminal or delinquent behavior to some food allergy
(B) if criminal or delinquent behavior is attributed to an allergy to some food
(C) in attributing behavior that is criminal or delinquent to an allergy to some food
(D) if some food allergy is attributed as the cause of criminal or delinquent behavior
(E) in attributing a food allergy as the cause of criminal or delinquent behavior
答案选B     主句为将来时，从句为现在时，但是B选项时态怎么跟主句时态一致呢？

偶明白了，谢谢各位

同意楼上的，这个语法是正确的，从句的时态可以使用一般式。

其实在IF条件句中，当从句的时态是一般现在时的时候，主句的时态可以是一般将来时也可以是一般现在时的，这个语法是正确的

这个题最关键的一点是在于，in doing something, somebody do something....通过做某事，某人做了某事。
but in attributing criminal or delinquent behavior to some food allergy（表示方式的状语）, the perpetrators....的结构，导致perpetrator成了in atrributing criminal....这个动作的逻辑主语，这是错误的，实际上应该是辩护律师做这个动作，因此一下就排除了ACE。那E中的“as the cause of”明显不如is atrributed to简介和常用，因此B正确。

不知lz是否是受OG上if X happened,Y happen的影响。其实做题做多了，lz会发现大量这样在if条件句中，主从句时态一样的情况。所以在做题的时候，不能死扣。
