Trans World Entertainment Corporation, which owns the Record Town and Saturday Matinee retail chains, announced that since sales of up to one-fourth of its stores are poor, they will be closed.

A.that since sales of up to one-fourth of its stores are poor, they will be closed

B.it is closing up to one-fourth of its stores, which accounted for its poor sales

C.it was closing up to one fourth of its stores because of poor sales

D.to be closing, on account of poor sales, up to one-fourth of its stores(C)

E.having poor sales, such that up to one-fourth of its stores will be closed
关于B选项，我想请问下各位，which错在什么地方了，不管前面时态的错误，只看这一点，which指代one fourth of its stores不是很合理吗？正是这些stores造成了 poor sales,所以才关它们不是吗？恳请大家指教

之所以说指代有问题，是因为意思不对

不是stores account for the poor sale
是poor sale account for closing

好MM啊，多次回答了我的问题，多谢了，哎，越临近考试越晕了，是store's sales啊，不是store啊，表示深深的惭愧……

这里为什么announce后面可以省略that呢。。。？
