A.    Over the course of the eighteenth century, the average output of ironwork tripled as a result of several improvements in blowing machinery and because coal replaced charcoal as the fuel used in the smelting of iron ore.
B.    Over the course of the eighteenth century a tripling in the average output of ironwork was due to the replacement of charcoal by coal for the fuel used in the smelting of iron ore, in addition to several improvements in blowing machinery.
C.    With charcoal’s being replaced by coal as the fuel used in the smelting of iron ore and several improvements in blowing machinery, the average output of ironwork tripled over the eighteenth century.
D.    The replacement of charcoal with coal for the fuel used in the smelting of iron ore and several improvements in blowing machinery, the average output of ironwork tripled over the eighteenth century.
E.    Charcoal being replaced by coal as the fuel used in the smelting of iron ore, and several improvements in blowing machinery, which tripled the average output of ironwork over the course of the eighteenth century.

答案给的是A，但是A中as a result of和because明显不平行，答案是A么？这个怎么解释？

答案是给的A，但是这个已经是争议好多年了。。。。个人看法不同。。。。主要就是集中在A的平行问题，C也有人认为是对的，但是也是有篡改原句含义，另外with one's being的BT用法。。。。。。反正就是了解下错的地方吧。。。。这。。估计真的没有个明确的答案

所以很多NN都说要对GWD使用的时候，要进行适当的取舍，关键是对知识点的复习，但是有时候还是要坚持自己的看法，嘻嘻。。。。大哥不要被GWD气死才好呀。。。

求教B哪错了？是因为is due to的用法不好吗？但是我觉得符合前后平行啊

1.a tripling is at best awkward, at worst wrong


what can you convey by this strucute ( a tripling of what?)


you should use the setence(like choice A) to fully convey the issue here ( this one is  not a fatal mistake)


2.due to is fine here


but what follows due to is extremely awakward  (the replacement of charcoal by coal for the fuel used in the smelting of iron ore)


what you try to convey is an action, a sentence is better than a noun to convey this idea ( just compare this to choice A)


3.also, these two reasons should be put in parallel form that is connected by and ( not in addition to )


and is used to show equal importance


while in additional to is used to show that what comes after " in additional to " has an inferior importance to what comes before " in addition to "
