57. That educators have not anticipated the impact of
microcomputer technology can hardly be said that it
is their fault : Alvin Toffler, one of the most prominent
students of the future, did not even mention
microcomputers in Future Shock, published in 1970.
(A) That educators have not anticipated the impact
of microcomputer technology can hardly be said
that it is their fault
(B) That educators have not anticipated the impact
of microcomputer technology can hardly be said
to be at fault
(C) It can hardly be said that it is the fault of
educators who have not anticipated the impact
of microcomputer technology
(D) It can hardly be said that educators are at fault
for not anticipating the impact of microcomputer
technology
(E) The fact that educators are at fault for not
anticipating the impact of microcomputer
technology can hardly be said

请问一下E：去掉“that fault”就和正确选项D一样了呀？所以E的错误就是“that fault”wordy了吗？那如果没有“that fault”，是不是选E更好，因为更接近原文？答案说E：the inverted construction does not successfully convey the meaning of the sentence.我也不是很明白

我的理解是，the inverted construction does not successfully convey the meaning of the sentence.是说这样倒置的结构让句子意思改变了。
原文是说我们不能去说that后面的一坨内容，也就是否认that的内容，然后冒号做了进一步解释。而E的句式是说，that这一堆东西是实际情况，只是很难说出来。原文否定意味就没有被convey出来
