B.   provide compelling support for the classification of

C.     provides compelling support to the classification of

D.     provides compelling support for classifying

E.     provides compelling support to classify

provides ...for     offer...to

2. We provided food for the hungry children.

记住了就好了。

先选了C，但查LONGMAN好像SUPPORT接FOR更常见一些，该选D。
