如果句子是这样的，也就是C选项：Migraine, the most debilitating common form of headache, afflicts perhaps 18 million Americans, who collectively lose 64 million workdays a year, so as to cost the nation $50 billion in medical expenses and lost work time. 这样的句子肯定是不对的。因为：cost的逻辑主语肯定还是Migraine，即我们可以把划线的部分去掉。那么就成了Migraine, the most debilitating common form of headache, afflicts perhaps 18 million Americans so as to cost the nation $50 billion in medical expenses and lost work time. 问题就出来了，你查查原版词典就知道，so as to do sth的意思是：为了做... ...，它的色彩是很主观的。可是，很明显migraine不可能有任何主观意愿，这种结果是顺其自然的，并非其目的。

所以，C选项不对。
