D for greater development economically and invest

E for greater economic development and the investment of

answer :A

请问这里的greater是动词么?后面的investing又与什么平行? greater economic development?

想来想去都觉得怪怪的~~哪位NN解释一下,先谢啦!

cities are stressing.....and investing....

这是平行，C D E就全排除了，再看的就是economic和development的修饰关系了，显然

A更好， greater是动词吧～

呵呵，头脑有点发昏！

竟然漏看了前面的stressing,多谢！
