答案选Ｂ

对答案没什么异议，只是很想请教一下Ｂ选项的夹心结构。
貌似这是ＥＴＳ常考内容之一，但是一直都不是很理解。

官方解释是“引起歧义，既能修饰前面，又能修饰后面”，可是怎样才算是引起歧义呢？我真的是常常都看不出来呢。大家都是根据什么来判断的呢？如果在不能快速看懂题的前提下，还有什么方法呢？通过词性判断？还是什么？

希望大家多多排砖哦！

我说说自己的思考步骤 希望对楼主有用
读完题后比较了AB.A是被动，所以B优先。C选项逻辑错误，4 million to 6 million of the 100 million votes cast 不能做citing的逻辑主语。D选项were cast 与had not been counted 时间关系错误。应该是投票在前，机票在后，所以过去完成时不对。
E estimate 用法错误。楼主平时要总结出现频率高的考点。做语法要想做数学套公式一样，见到什么形式就套相应的考点。这个能力是在做题过程中慢慢积累的。
