嗯，这道题的关键还是在于通过语义上判断，它的意思不外就是说   建这样一座新大楼会被视为浪费，那怕仅仅从我们应该避免重复建设这个方面来说
                                                                                                      C 建设这样一座新大楼会被视为浪费的全部原因在于我们不应该建设完全一样的设施
不过似乎那个duplicated 和duplication也有区别，我查了一下词典，duplication是说重复，duplicated是说复制品

这个题C 应该没有什么问题吧，单就意思而论 “in that"以便。建大楼 会浪费以便节约？说不通啊 ...

in that的意思是because...

有一道题含有in that，但是OG解释说overly formal。而且Ron大神说过对于in that和because的区别（ron的解释）：
其实我也没太看懂，lz看懂了的话，帮忙解释哦~
X because Y means that there is an actual CAUSE-EFFECT RELATIONSHIP, in which Y is/was the actual CAUSE of X.
X in that Y is a LIMITING STATEMENT. in these statements, x is usually something very general, but then the sentence LIMITS that statement to the scope of whatever Y is.
here are a couple of examples.
joe is a typical teenager in that he likes to watch a great deal of television.
--> MEANING: joe shares one thing with typical teenagers: namely, he likes to watch a lot of tv.
joe is a typical teenager because he likes to watch a great deal of television.
--> MEANING: joe's tv shows have actually CAUSED him to BECOME LIKE other teenagers.

个人认为其实没必要对于because 和 in that 的区别纠结太深，因为ETS肯定不会单纯考你because 和 in that 的区别，另外，ETS自己也明确说了“in that has largely gone out of use, it is considered stilted and overly formal”

非NN哈，也是小白
如果我做这道题的话呢，我会排除C 因为“in that”，至于C是否有其他的错误，等待其他NN解释啦

祝考试好运！
