OG 16 SC 39，没找到解释，求问语法点V+ing的用法 【已解决】

iamluluhaha

A surge in new home sales and a drop in weekly unemployment claims suggest that the economy might not be as weak as some analysts previously thought.

(A) claims suggest that the economy might not be as weak as some analysts previously thought

(B) claims suggests that the economy might not be so weak as some analysts have previously thought

(C) claims suggest that the economy might not be as weak as have been previously thought by some analysts

(D) claims, suggesting about the economy that it might not be so weak as previously thought by some analysts

(E) claims, suggesting the economy might not be as weak as previously thought to be by some analysts

答案A，我选了C，有几个小点不太明白，想请教各位NN一下

1. 选项C中，OG给你解释是：The sentence offers no plural subject to fit the passive verb have been thought， 这里不太明白了，have been thought不就是复数的形式吗？has been thought才是单数的啊？

2. 关于D，E选项，我虽然没选，但不真的不知道D为什么错。  V+ing的句型结构，做了一些og题后发现，逗号后+ving的形式都是映射到句子的大主语去啊（这道题中，就是a surge in new home sales and a drop in weekly unemployment claims), 求指点一下，为什么不能选D，而这类Ving的题有什么做题方法吗？

感谢！

花了一个小时来研究这个v+ing，感觉自己正在飘。。。但好在有点结果，但还是不确定，所以还是求指正！

一位NN的V+ing用法的总结。很棒！有一样问题的小伙伴可以看一下！

之后我再思考自己的这道题，配合OG对选项D，E的解释后（如下）
D This construction is awkward, wordy, and imprecise; it also lacks a main verb; there is no reason to use passive voice, and suggesting about the economy that it might . . . introduces extra words that contribute nothing to the meaning of this sentence fragment.
E The passive construction makes this unnecessarily wordy; the lack of a main verb makes this a sentence fragment.

猜测，这里是也可以用 逗号+suggesting的，只是D，E的错误在于被动的说法？。。造成的redundant和wordy？
哎哟，但我在这人又有一个问题了，这句话说，如果是suggesting就没有main verb了，难道suggesting不是谓语动词吗？求高人解答啊。。

D和E的主要错误是主句没有动词，根本没写完。

这题里claims是名词不是动词，如果再用suggesting的话句子就fragment了
