Manhattan 上的gmat sfaff 的解说
a, b, c can all be eliminated because of improper idiomaticusage: the proper idiom is '...a crime for blah blah blah to hold...' 'with' in choice b is also bad: it seems to imply that immigrants arrived withthe law in their hands. choice c implies that the immigrants themselves are 'a law passed in 19xx'(analogy: 'an accomplished pianist, jay made a nice living playing at weddings'- jay is an accomplished pianist. same reading applies to this sentence,although it's considerably longer and more difficult to parse)
choice d doesn't do that: it writes 'because of a law', where 'a law' isdefinitely a noun. (the subsequent modifier 'making it a crime...' modifies'law', and is not associated with 'because of')
choice e changes the meaning of the sentence: taken literally, it says that theimmigrants found themselves in this unenviable situation not because of the lawitself, but because of the passage of the law. although somewhatplausible, this is not the intent of the original sentence.
所以这题还是从固定搭配和逻辑意思来分析。
