OG 12-002

Although a surge in retail  sales have raised hopes that there is a recovery finally underway,many economists say that without a large amount of  spending the recovery might not last.
(A)  have raised hopes that there is a recovery finally
(B)  raised hopes for there being a recovery finally
(C)  had raised hopes for a recovery finall being
(D)  has raised hopes that a recovery is finally
(E)  raised hopes for a recovery finally
问题：在E的解释里边，OG给的是For a recovery finally is awkward and--to the extent that it can be seen as grammatical--does not make sense.
这个解释有些看不明白，而且我觉得以前我们国内考试这么说是没有问题的啊，但是为什么在这儿这样说就错了呢？
请NN们讲解一下，谢谢啦~

前半句谓语指代surge 后半句有say 直接判断是单数，现在时 选D 。答案说错误 是因为不符合正规用法 但是语法是可行的 语法题是要找相对另外四个正确的一个 不是要看每一个是不是严格符合书面用法

仔细分析下E的结构

rise hope for recovery finnally underway

这里的underway 修饰的不是recovery，而是hope， 表示hope正在进行，这是错误的
