一道比较题求教NN

Maggie草

The unskilled workers at the Allenby plant realized that their hourly rate of $4.11 to $4.75 was better than many nearby factory wages.
(A) many nearby factory wages
(B) many wages in nearby factories
(C) what are offered by many nearby factories
(D) it is in many nearby factories
(E) that offered by many nearby factories

这道题选E，可是我想问一下，后面不是many nearby factories么？那rate不是应该要用复数么？E的话that是单数呀，这个没有错么？
请NN们一定要指点呀，我真的是不明白。

注意看题干里面their hourly rate of这里的rate也是用单数的。所以后面用that是没有错的。至于这是个什么语法我也不太清楚。交给后面的牛牛解答一下吧。。

原题factory wages》factories wages

“that offered by many nearby factories” 说明的也更加清楚（factories和wages的关系）

以上是我的观点，大家参详
