45.According to some analysts, the gains in the stock market reflect growing confidence that the economy will avoid the recession that many had feared earlier in the year and instead come in for a “soft landing,” followed by a gradual increase in business activity.
(A) that the economy will avoid the recession that many had feared earlier in the year and instead come
(B) in the economy to avoid the recession, what many feared earlier in the year, rather to come
(C) in the economy’s ability to avoid the recession, something earlier in the year many had feared, and instead to come
(D) in the economy to avoid the recession many were fearing earlier in the year, and rather to come
(E) that the economy will avoid the recession that was feared earlier this year by many, with it instead coming
Grammatical construction + Rhetorical construction
The original sentence successfully avoids the problems that may occur in a long sentence with multiple modifiers. Two subordinate clauses begin with that, and one of them is contained within another. That many had flared earlier in the year clearly defines the recession. That the economy will avoid ... and instead (will understood) come... is the subordinate clause that follows the main clause; its subject, economy, is followed by two parallel verbs, will avoid and (will understood) come. Instead before the second verb properly indicates contrast.
ACorrect. This sentence contains two correct subordinate clauses introduced by that.
BWhat cannot replace that, the economy to avoid the recession is awkward and unclear; rather to come does not complete the second part of the sentence idiomatically
CEarlier in the year should follow many had feared, rather than preceding it; instead to come does not complete the second part of the sentence idiomatically
D
The recession must be followed by that-, were fearing is the wrong tense; rather to come does not complete the second part of the sentence idiomatically
EThe passive voice construction that was feared is weak and wordy; with it instead coming is awkward, wordy, and ungrammatical

额…这个争论不止的过去完成时啊。觉得完成时用错的人如是说：
the "had" should not be there.
A better sentence would be:
According to some analysts,the gains in the stock market reflect growing confidence that the economy will avoid the recession that many feared earlier in the year and instead come in for a soft landing followed by gradual increase in the business activity.

But keep in mind, we're not supposed to choose the answer choice that is "perfect", but instead, supposed to choose the "best" answer choice. Sometimes we just have to choose the answer choice that is the lesser of two evils.
觉得完成时用对的人如是说：

The past tense action in this case is the statement of the analysts. It's terribly unclear because the past tense is not actually used, except implicitly.

A rewrite of this sentence would be:

Analysts said that the economy will avoid the recession that many had feared earlier in the year.

It is clear by the "earlier in the year" that the fears occurred earlier than the analysts opinion. It is not the "followed by a gradual increase in business activity" clause that serves as the past tense, as you could get rid of that clause and the sentence would still be correct.

I have the same doubt in this sentence discussed here.
