请问一下 B 哪里错了，有资料解释说，at a cost 是在修饰前面整句话，即propose这个动作而不是project。 我觉得有道理，但是不知道为什么它是修饰propose而不是project。
另外还有解释说raising错误的修饰了cost。
求大神解答。

The city has proposed a number of water treatment and conservation projects at a cost raising water bills so high
歧义就是at a cost 修饰了proposed,翻译过来就是这个城市以一个***成本提出一个什么什么project。是有歧义的。而正确选项用whose，则cost很明确的修饰了projects。

是将来时还是一种结构呢？
我以为是将来时，然后排除了正确选项
