On account of a lawpassed in 1933, making it a crime punishable by imprisonment that a UnitedStates citizen hold gold in the form of bullion or coins, immigrants found that on arrivalin the United States they had to surrender all of the gold they had broughtwith them.
A.    On account of a law passed in 1933, making it a crime punishable byimprisonment that a United States citizen hold
B.    With a law passed in 1933 that makes it a crime punishable byimprisonment that a United States citizen hold
C.    A law passed in 1933 that made it a crime punishable by imprisonment fora United States citizen holding
D.     Because of a law passedin 1933 making it a crime punishable by imprisonment for a United Statescitizen to hold             (D)
E.    Due to a law being passed in 1933 that makes it a crime punishable byimprisonment for a United States citizen to hold


选项分析：A.     ①hold与a United States citizen主谓不一致；②making放在句中夹心修饰③make it a crime that sb.do sth.搭配错误，应该是acrime for sb. to do sth.
B.     ①hold与a United States citizen主谓不一致；②阐明法律法规的内容习惯使用doing；③make it a crime that sb.do sth.搭配错误，应该是acrime for sb. to do sth.；④with短语做伴随状语，逻辑主语为immigrants，表达的是law是为immigrants拥有的，逻辑错误。
C.     ①it指代不清，it可以指代不定式，但是不能指代holding这样的现在分词；正确的短语是make it a crime for sb.to do，用doing错误②法律法规习惯使用doing；；③A law passed in 1993that…有作为immigrants同位语的歧义
D.     Correct；Because of结构后面需要紧跟核心原因，这里核心原因就是law，所以允许（见prep1-203补充说明，其中的D选项的because of moisture就不是核心原因）
E.     ①being冗余；②阐明法律法规的内容习惯使用doing；③由于due to放在句首有引导形容词短语的歧义，在GMAT中不放在句首


谁能解释下a中的夹心修饰是怎么回事？

夹心修饰，放在关系代词和be动词之间：

如OG12 SC118题中：a phenomenon that (most scientists agree) is caused by human beings' burning of fossil fuels  

例子: He has a girlfriend who he claims is sexy.   实际上就是 He has a girlfriend, and he claims that she is sexy
