At one time, the majestic American chestnut was so prevalent that it was said a squirrel could jump
from tree to tree without once touching the ground between New York State and Georgia.

(A) so prevalent that it was said a squirrel could
(B) so prevalent that a squirrel was said that it could
(C) so prevalent for a squirrel to be said to be able to
(D) prevalent enough that it was said a squirrel could
(E) prevalent enough for a squirrel to be said to be able to
答案A中it作为形式主语，it was said后面是不是应该加上连词that啊？

这里it is said做插入语，你可以将it is said提取出来，并不改变so that的实质内容，it is said只是做一个补充说明，说明不知道事实怎样，只是有人这么说

插入语不是要a pair of comma吗~只是不知道A中的用法成不成立~

那是在其他的一个帖子上看到的，后来我自己又去查别的，好像that是可以省略的
