A 的resulting前面应该需要个连接词吧。我是这么认为的，不知道对不对

A

宾语从句的that不能省略，cd排除

suffer from 固定用语，选A

不看suffer from，再往后看，出现because 则because of排除，因为前者简洁有效，

最后看A B，同样用简洁有效，AB表示同一个意思，但是B明显很绕，排除。

参考新东方老师给的一些规则哈，有不正确不吝赐教~~

简洁有效：1用词少为简洁，但不能改变句子原意    短语优于从句，从这道题AB比较也可以看出来

2避免重复用词 比如 annual和a year 重复。。诸如此类的重复可以直接排除

此处主要是强调一个已经结束的状态（increase）而不是正在进行的动作(increasing)，所以用名词会比用动名词更优。

同样的，food supplies were dwindling用了一个过去进行事表达了时间的概念，比单单用分词短语dwindling food supplies 表达的持续性动作要更优

希望有所帮助～

1、首先 reveal 后面要用宾语从句，可以排除 DE2选项

2、 其次，从逻辑含义可以排除C,creatures of the seabed were suffering 是因为  because food supplies were dwindling这件事情，而不是 因为 food supplies ；

3、 A和B 中排除A.原因是 A中的possibly resulting from increasing修饰有歧义，可以理解成修饰food supplies，也可以 理解成修饰 creatures of the seabed were suffering ；除此之外，A中的resulting from increasing里面的 “increasing动名词（表状态）"没有"increase 名词（表结果）”好
