why is C incorrect?

In 2000, a mere two dozen products accounted for half the increase in spending on prescription drugs, a phenomenon that is explained not just because of more expensive drugs but by the fact that doctors are writing many more prescriptions for higher-cost drugs.

1. a phenomenon that is explained not just because of more expensive drugs but by the fact that doctors are writing
   
2. a phenomenon that is explained not just by the fact that drugs are becoming more expensive but also by the fact that doctors are writing
   
3. a phenomenon occurring not just because of drugs that are becoming more expensive but because of doctors having also written
   
4. which occurred not just because drugs are becoming more expensive but doctors are also writing
   
5. which occurred not just because of more expensive drugs but because doctors have also written

1. having done: 错误答案的标准长象 (建议仔细阅读OG), 应该在1秒钟之内排除, 除非是credit with haveing done一类的固定搭配.

2. occurring 改变句子原意. 本来是要表达现象由...来解释, 现在变成现象的发生由...来解释. 之间存在细微差别.

3. 从句意来讲, because of 强调后面跟的名词drug本身, 而by the fact that...强调整个事件. 而这个现象理应是整个事件引起, 而非单单药物本身.

补充点：C not because of drugs, but because of doctors having done,一个是名词，一个是动作，也不对称。当然啦，这只是C众多错误之一了。

另外A中 explain 和because，大家觉得有没有重复的感觉在？

fuyun

A:  because of more expensive drugs  标准错误，修饰歧义。（更贵的药/更多贵的药）

C: a phenomenon occurring not just because of drugs that are becoming more expensive but because of doctors having also written

现象发生因为药和医生

riverhouse

this is a combination use of "not ...but..." and "so ...that..."

Weiyu's explaination of "就象那个not so much...as/but对but的解释一样。" is wrong.

D错在哪里啊？是不是which不能指代前面整个句子，所以错？

嗯..which 在这里只能指代drugs,GMAT中it ,which,都不能用来指代前面的句子.而且.D中的but后至少也要跟个because吧..

个人意见..我不是NN.只是做这题时这么排除的..用which排除DE..

排除, get B

Most insomnia is not an illness or a physical condition so much as a symptom of another problem that may simply be a reaction to certain medications, anxiety about travel, or stress before a job interview.


    

    

        

    

    

1. an illness or a physical condition so much as a symptom of another problem that may simply be a reaction to certain medications
           
2. an
   illness or a physical condition so much as symptomatic of another
   problem that may be a simple one, like a reaction caused by certain
   medications

   
               

3. so
   much an illness or a physical condition but a symptom of another
   problem that may be as simple as when certain medications cause a
   reaction

   
               

4. so
   much an illness or a physical condition, but it is a symptom of another
   problem, maybe a simple one like certain medications causing a reaction
   

   
               

5. so much an illness or a physical condition but symptomatic of another problem, maybe simply a reaction to certain medications

这题出自哪里啊?
我觉得看来看去还是 C最好， 不是吗? 一点问题都没有。。
有人说as simple as ...不好， 我不太理解。。。。
可是A读去来就不太顺。。。。应该是NOT SO MUCH A, But B....
在平行上C也没有任何问题 后面只是一个定语从句修饰simpton
