谢谢楼主,
当时一看C, agree ... is ...没有关联词, 就先排除了

但是如果将B改成,

a phenomenon most scientists agree that is caused by  human beings's burning fossil fuels

若作为global warming同位语是否正确呢? most scientists agree 在这里做插入语,我的理解

希望大家能能指点一下
谢谢

a phenomenon most scientists agree that is caused by  human beings's burning fossil fuels=
a phenomenonthat mostscientists agreeand thatis caused by  human beings's burning fossil fuels--此是平行并列
改变愿意：即phenomenonthat mostscientists agree 也不通顺；变成agree phenomenon[暂且不论agree不及物动词]；而原文是agree  that  is caused by  human beings's burning fossil fuels。

就是有一个小问题：
“ The GMAT insists that the following Reporting Verbs take "that" whenever you follow them with a
clause .....
The criminals AGREED THAT gold would be the scam.”-----摘自 Manhattan SC



这里C选项，省略了定语从句前的that,貌似有点儿小问题....

在曼哈顿笔记里看到一个正确的例句，很类似，分享一下~~~

agree的用法

RIGHT:
1、They agree that electrons exist.
2、Electrons are particles that physicists agree exist.


WRONG:
1、Electrons are particles physicists agree that exist.
2、Electrons are particles physicists agree to exist.

如果有人不喜欢grammar term，不妨看看一个Native speaker, a Manhattan tutor 关于C的 most scientists agree的解释：               
“I'm not sure what technical term "most scientists agree" would be called, but the main modifier here is "a phenomenon that is caused by human beings' burning of fossil fuels". "most scientists agree" is an additional, subordinate modifier to this modifier that tell us more about who thinks this is true. It would be similar to the end of the sentence: "The forest is green, said Joe", where "said Joe" is a modifier to the main idea in the sentence. You can invert this sentence to say "Joe said that the forest is green" and the modifier becomes the main subject/verb. In your example, we could change the middle part of the sentence to say "most scientists agree that this phenomenon is caused by human beings' burning of fossil fuels". The problem is that this sentence is good as a standalone sentence, but not as a modifier, because we need "phenomenon" to be the subject of our modifier, since it is an appositive, describing the phrase "global warming". ”

其实从逻辑上看更符合GMAC的思路吧。
A 燃烧化石燃料的人引起了全球变暖
B 人类燃烧的化石燃料引起了全球变暖
C 人类燃烧化石燃料引起全球变暖
D燃烧化石燃料的人引起了全球变暖
E人类燃烧的化石燃料引起了全球变暖
因此从逻辑上开，更符合的应该是C，这个行为引起变暖，而不是石油引起气候变暖，或者开车的司机引起气候变暖。
