Because there are provisions of the new maritime code that  provide that even tiny islets can be the basis for claims to the fisheries  and oil fields of large sea areas, they have already stimulated international disputes over uninhabited islands.    A. Because there are provisions of  the new maritime code that provide that even tiny islets can be the basis for  claims to the fisheries and oil fields of large sea areas, they have already  stimulated    B. Because the new maritime code  provides that even tiny islets can be the basis for claims to the fisheries  and oil fields of large sea areas, it has already stimulated    C. Even tiny islets can be the basis  for claims to the fisheries and oil fields of large sea areas under  provisions of the new maritime code, already stimulating    D. Because even tiny islets can be the basis  for claims to the fisheries and oil fields of large sea areas under  provisions of the new maritime code, this has already stimulated    E. Because even tiny islets can be the basis  for claims to the fisheries and oil fields of large sea areas under  provisions of the new maritime code, which is already stimulating

1. 对于 A选项， OG 有这样的解释：
A. The "there are ... that ... " construction is unnecessarily wordy;  in the predicate nominative instead of the subject position, "provisions " is not an obvious referent for the pronoun "they".
这句解释，不是特别懂，已经get的大神能不能解释下？

2. 然后OG里还有一句对原句的解释是：the sentence needd to make clear whether provisions or code is the subject of the main verb stimulated.
为什么不清楚？provisions是复数，code是单数，后面的主语是they，单复数对应，不OK吗？

3. 我有一个想法，想确认下，provision 和 code 同时出现算不算重复多余的问题？两个都是规定的意思

非牛牛，只会回答第一个问题。。。

A中有there be多余，A选项的定语从句谓语provide，先行词是就近的code（规定n），还是句子的主句provisions（规定n），从语义上分不清哪个是先行词了，因为两个意思一样。。

这是道很难的题目，个人愚见：

（1）OG答案中说的they，是they have already stimulated当中的they，指代不清。最临近的复数名词为oil fields和 sea areas，但也可以理解为先行句中的主语Provisions。OG说的there are ... that...that多余的原因请见选项B，一个定语从句的表达形式明显优于there be引导的倒装外加两个that。至于provisions和code那个是主语问题，a里面这段话翻译一下，你会发现因果关系是因为这there are provisions所以就引起了争端，b的话是因为这个条款规定的这个事情（code that后面的这部分），所以才导致了争端，相比较而言a明显句子意思不合理一些。

我个人对选项的理解：
c. under  provisions of the new maritime code修饰歧义，修饰的是sea areas还是修饰的是provisions不清晰。already stimulating伴随状语也用的不好。

d. this has already stimulated的this指代不清，前面是一整段话，所以代词一般不会用this。

e. which is already却主语

一个歪窍门，当你在两个选项当中犹豫不定的时候，要猜答案那就猜带定于从句的选项，定于从句用于修饰是OG认为最合理的方法之一，才定语从句“蒙对”的概率相对来说大一些。

ok! get!!!  蟹蟹！ 么么哒！

c. OG 也是那样解释的，思路完全相同

d. this 不能单独作主语琥珀宾语，它不能充当名词成分

e. which 就近指代名词，指的是前面的code，这个选项的问题出在主句残缺，前面是because从句，但后面是which引导的非限制性定从，根本问题是这个。
