支持D. 第一, 首先要确定的是这里要用that定从限定修饰stagnation, missteps and blunders. “So that”在这句里的用法不妥. 要用的话也要用correct them, them指troubles, 所以A, B不行. E中的so不能省掉. 第二, D中的correct后面没宾语, 怪怪. Correct的宾语就是”that”, 而that所修饰的是stagnation, missteps and blunders. D中的”that”在从句中做宾语成分, 理论上讲, 可以省掉. 省掉的例子有: 1) OG9: explosion, one (that) they believe… 2) 大全454: Japan used the huge sums of capital (that) it received from the United States. 但是有不省略的情况, 主要还是看是否会产生歧义. 不省的例子有OG243: those that human can consume, 这句省了后, those更像修饰human, 意思变成”那些人”了. 再看D, 如果省了, managerial blunders several attempts to revise… 两个名词连着让人莫不到头脑. 还有个办法, 就是用介词+代词的形式来代替做宾语成分的”that”. 例子有: OG257: The direction in which the earth and the other solid plants spin, 这里direction是spin的宾语, spin应跟介词in,故选用in which, 整句= earth and the other solid plants spin in the direction. 再看我们这题, 因为correct后不用介词, 所以不能用介词+代词的形式来代替”that”. 如果改成这样就行了, technological stagnation, marketing missteps, and managerial blunders for which several attempts to revise corporate strategies have failed to provide answers. answers应跟介词for,故选用for which = corporate strategies have failed to provide answers for technological stagnation, marketing missteps, and managerial blunder. 个人认为介词+代词的形式, 比做宾语成分的”that”更清楚易懂.
