我觉得（A）的问题是：

1.it指代不清

2.先不考虑逻辑含义，就语法点上来看，that可以认为是claim的宾从，也可以认为是就近修饰sample的定从，所以that也指代不清

介词from引导的状语位置的不对导致的修饰对象的不清晰，所以意思也不好

现在还有人讨论这题么？
120. A firm that specializes in the analysis of handwriting claims from a one-page writing sample that it can assess more than 300 personality traits, including enthusiasm, imagination, and ambition.
(A) from a one-page writing sample that it can  assess
(B) from a one-page writing sample it has the ability  of assessing
(C) the ability, from a one-page writing sample, of assessing
(D) to be able, from a one-page writing sample, to assess
(E) being able to assess, from a one-page writing sample
想问下from a one-page writing sample修饰的到底是be able还是assess呢？如果是assess为啥不直接放在assess之后呢？D中不会有修饰成分修饰不清的问题么？

A. That可能是claims that（宾从），也可能是sample that（定从）
B.From前缺少that； the abil¬ity of比较wordy和awkward
C.the ability of比较wordy和awkward；若claims为不及物动词，后面缺少that；若claims为及物动词，句子为claims the ability of……中，ability应接to do
D. 正确
E.claims being able to 用法不对，是claims that 或claims to
