C.    at a cost which raises water bills high enough so
D.    whose cost will raise water bills so high that
E.    whose cost will raise water bills high enough so that


请问B的错误在哪？ 有whose的选项whose指代谁？  劳烦知道的帮忙解答一下，谢谢了！答案是D。

B 的意思是 has proposed。。。。。 at a cost  是指做这件事的成本。
D的 projects  whose cost 修饰projects 指项目本身的成本。两者意思完全不一样。
whose 指代 projects

谢谢回答，但怎么感觉whose refer的是前面两个对象？

MiaZhang

whose就是projects，前面 treatment and conservation 是对projects的限定

abjure

+1
