In late 1997, the chambers inside the pyramid of the Pharaoh Menkaure at Giza were closed to visitors for cleaning and repair due to moisture exhaled by 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 humidity to 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
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 by tourists 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
prep里的对于because 和because of 的解释还是有点不懂 复制
Because of 后只能加简单的名词结构,because of sb’s doing 一定要改成because
这种情况同样适用于due to, despite(in despite of), as a result of
这是说明 because of Mary's hard work 这种我常用的句子是错误的吗? 只能写成because Mary works hard
还有以下解释
A due to moisture无法表达closed for cleaning and repair的直接原因 D because of moisture无法表达closed for cleaning and repair的直接原因
上面说because of 和 due to 之类的表原因的短语 因为其带上了介词就只能加上最简单的名词结构 所以在其解释答案的时候也就只把后面唯一的一个名词作为介词宾语 然后because of 这种表因果的短语只能用一个名词来说明原因,而这个名词修饰的部分不参与说明原因,可是我看名词加从句是完全可以表达出closed for cleaning and repair的直接原因
但我觉得后面加上的简单名词也有修饰成分,前面是说既然用了because of 那原因就是后面那个名词 名词的修饰成分全部丢掉, 可是我觉得正是因为非要强行丢掉修饰成分才使得表达原因不直接,就比如 我想说 金字塔修理的原因是湿气的增加导致…… 但是由于上句里的词组“的原因”我用的because of 所以就直接判定原因就因为湿气 这就导致原因不直接 而实际上是规定用了because of +简单名词 而忽略掉了后面的“的增加导致……”的这种修饰结构 是这种结构的强行规定弄的这个句子原因不直接,而实际上这个句子读起来时原因还是很清晰直接的

简单的说 A due to moisture无法表达closed for cleaning and repair的直接原因 : 引起关闭的是湿度到了某个水平,而不是有水气,水汽什么时候都有。这逻辑上不行 D because of moisture无法表达closed for cleaning and repair的直接原因 引起关闭的是湿度到了某个水平,而不是有水气,水汽什么时候都有。这逻辑上不行
我不认为because of +名词+修饰不行,关键问题是这种修饰经常引起歧义。 because of moisture that was exhaled by tourists raising the humidity within them to levels so high as to make the salt from the stone crystallize
