花露水6

In late 1997, the chambersinside the pyramid of the
Pharaoh Menkaureat Giza wereclosed to visitors for
cleaning and repair due to moisture exhaled bv
tourists, which raised its humidity to such levels so
that salt from the stone was crystallizing and fungus
was growing on the walls.
(A) due to moisture exhaled by tourists, which
raised its humidityto such levels so that salt
from the stone was crystallizing
(B) due to moisture that tourists had exhaled,
thereby raising its humidity to such levels that
salt from the stone would crystallize
The phrase due to
makesthis causal sequence somewhat ambiguous,
seemingto suggest that the repairs were due to
humidity from visitors' breath.
(C) because tourists were exhaling moisture, which
had raised the humidity within them to levels
such that salt from the stone would crystallize
(D) because of moisture that was exhaled bytourists
raising the humidity within them to levels so high
as to make the salt from the stone crystallize
(E) because moisture exhaled by tourists had raised
the humidity within them to such levels that salt
from the stone was crystallizing
答案说The phrase due to makes this causal sequence somewhat ambiguous,
seeming to suggest that the repairs were due tohumidity from visitors' breath.
是因为high levels of humidity而不是单单是因为humidity吗？也就是which非限制的原因吗？？求解

嗯懂了 还是得看语义

九尾

这个今天刚总结了：
我的理解是due to的话 会使得产生一种错觉 即 moisture导致了cleaning and repair ；这样的话没有讲清楚为什么会cleaning and repair ，其实实际逻辑是moisture导致 raised its humidity to such levels so that salt from the stone was crystallizing and fungus was growing on the walls间接导致了cleaning and repair 。
我是这么理解的 希望对你有所帮助
