在讨论汇总里没找到。

The investigations of many psychologists and anthropologists support the generalization of there being little that is a significant difference in the underlying mental processes manifested by people from different cultures.

(A) of there being little that is a significant difference

(B) of there being little that is significantly different

(C) of little that is significantly different

(D) that there is little that is significantly different

(E) that there is little of significant differences

为什么答案是D，而不是E。哪位nn解释一下？

E是错的,因为little 是修饰不可数名词的,而后面的differences是可数的.

D最好了,第一个that 代替指generalization ,第二个that引导一个定语从句,

其实,D读起来也比E顺.

对不对啊?

明白了，that there is little that is different这里的little指的是little generation ，所以后面的that是定语从句，看上去罗索是因为不能把different放在little的前面或者后面，因为这里是要省略前面出现过得generation,所以没办法，只好用that is different的形式来继续修饰generation。
