杜号后面是原因状语从句。
Choices A and B are unclear and imprecise: on the basis of avoidance… and on the grounds of avoiding … do not present reasons that support the statement in the main clause, and alone seems illogically to modify duplicated facilities. Also, duplicated facilities in A, B, and C identifies the problem with the facilities that have been duplicated, not with the act of duplicating facilities; for example, C apparently advises people to avoid facilities that have been duplicated. In D, while establishes no logical relation between the main clause and the rest of the sentence. E is best: if only because introduces a reason for the preceding statement, and the remainder of the answer choice is logically worded. The question is difficult.

if only: 此处取第二种意思。
a) used to express a strong wish, especially when you know that what you want cannot happen
　 If only he had talked to her sooner!
　 If only I weren't so tired!
b) used to give a reason for something, although you think it is not a good one
　 Media studies is regarded as a more exciting subject, if only because it's new.
