1.One reason why more young people lose their virginity during the summer than at other times of the year undoubtedly is because school vacations give adolescents more free time.

(A) One reason why more young people lose their virginity during the summer than at other times of the year undoubtedly is because

(B) If young people lose their virginity more during the summer than other seasons, it is undoubtedly because

(C) One undoubtable reason that young people lose their virginity more during the summer than other times is

(D) One reason more young people lose their virginity during the summer than at other times of the year is undoubtedly that（D）

(E) Young people lose their virginity more often during the summer undoubtedly because, for one reason,

标准答案是D，但个人认为是错的
我们从开始进行分析
A: A的错误有几个 One reason why 。。。。reason 和WHY 有含有原因的意思 语义其实重复的~应该是that 做同位语比较说得通
但特此想请教几个大大们

扩散问题：
大前提：用WHY 是对的。。。
在和英专的人聊的时候他们觉得省略WHY 是可以的  有例句The reason (why)he is late remains unknown.
我在问的时候指出 句子的成分中同时出现了主谓宾主系表结构会不会引发歧义 既缺乏关系词 让句子显得不够严谨。
请大大们给予解答

B。个人认为B的错误有2点：
1。改变了原句的强调重点 MORE 在时间前面语义上强调的是时间 原句在PEOPLE 前面 强调的是人数的对比
2。语句结构感觉有问题 IF 引导的真实条件句，后面语句中it is ...because让人费解 要么是强调句 it is undoubtedly that ...caused ....
毫无疑问 。。问题 引发了。。问题，  感觉就是it 作为主语 强调原因是 undoubtedly 的 直接用， undoubtedly because 即可
个人认为重复 要么就是传统强调结构 这边我也很纠结

C。1.和B一样 强调重点也变换了
2.is 后面少了THAT 前面THAT应该是同位语 后面引导的表语从句 THAT 不能省略

D.竟然是正确答案
语法错误没有
但是比较错误啊！！GMAT 最大的原罪错误
more 在people 前面 和than 之间有3大可比较元素  非常的歧义 不妨我来加几个词 让大家理解一下
原句  One reason more young people lose their virginity during the summer than at other times of the year
第一个改动 One reason more young people lose their virginity during the summer than (there are) at other times of the year 强调的主体是人数
第二个改动 One reason more young people lose their virginity during the summer than（they do） at other times of the year 强调的是主体的动作
第三个改动 变化一下more 的位置 One reason  young people lose their virginity more during the summer than at other times of the year 强调的是时间的对比
原句中省略了 我是否可以理解为歧义 最起码是对比不完整

E.改变句意 用频数代替了 可能的3个比较

好了 我分析下来5个全错了。。还是都有硬伤的
那么我们遵循GMAT 原则 先语法 后逻辑
语法上E没有错误~ FOR ONE REASON 作为插入语强调只有那么一个原因
但是改成了频数 但是频数又等于发生个数/总体个数
HERE IT COMES 在频数比较时 总体个数不会改变 ------------------原句限定了时间区间 summer 和the other times of the year!
对 是the year 样本是young people  所以频数的变化可以变相的反应出数量的变化 也跟原句想要表达的一致~
所以 我在纠结后选了E 求指教
