For many revisionist historians, Christopher Columbus has come to

personify devastation and enslavement in the name of progress that

has decimated native peoples of the Western Hemisphere.

A.     devastation and enslavement in the name of progress that

has decimated native peoples of the Western Hemisphere

B.     devastation and enslavement in the name of progress by

which native peoples of the Western Hemisphere

decimated

C.     devastating and enslaving in the name of progress those native

peoples of the Western Hemisphere which in the name of progress are decimated.

D.     devastating and enslaving those native peoples of the western

Hemisphere which in the name of progress are decimated.

E.      the devastation and enslavement in the name of progress that

have decimated the native peoples of the Western Hemisphere.

我觉得应该时A

decimate的动作发出者应该时progress

如果是你说的，那么that从句应该提前到它修饰的那个词后面

这道题我有至少8成的把握，E是正确答案。

E中，the定冠词的使用是没有问题的。举个例子：

I like the book that you recommended.

I like book that you recommended.

哪个对？前一个吧。

即使抛开the的问题不谈，A也不对。

把A的结构简化一下，就是CC...personify devastation and enslavement in the name of progress that has decimated native peoples...

如果that从句修饰progress，来翻译一下这句话：

CC将其破坏与奴役人性化，以一种进步的名义，这种进步就是屠杀土著人。

句意荒谬。
