122.

The features of the floor of the Kasei Valles on Mars look just like those at the base of Antarctic ice streams, so it suggests that possibly it was flowing ice that carved the giant Martian channels previously attributed to cataclysmic floods.

(B) a suggestion that flowing ice may have
(C) to suggest flowing ice as possibly having
(D) suggesting that flowing ice may have
(E) which is suggestive of flowing ice having possibly
答案选D， suggesting that ......在这里到底是做前面动作look like的伴随状语还是前面整句话的结果状语？

恩，这里的确不像prep里说的那样做伴随状语。
不过做结果状语的话，这个逻辑上也有点问题吧：KV表面上的一些要素看起来很像南极冰流的底部，这个事件导致了暗示（suggesting）浮动冰块可以雕刻火星水槽。(翻译的很烂，不要介意）而且结果状语，貌似都是由causing这一类词引导的，这里用suggesting引导感觉怪怪的。
