这题怪怪的。A是答案? 可A不平衡啊 -- as a result, because
除了DE是一定错之外，我怎么觉得C没有甚么错。。。

A.   Over the course of the eighteenth century,the average output of ironwork tripled as a result of several improvements inblowing machinery and because coal replaced charcoal as the fuel used in thesmelting of iron ore.
B.   Over the course of the eighteenth century a tripling in the average output of ironwork was due to the replacement of charcoal by coal for the fuel used in the smelting of iron ore, in addition toseveral improvements in blowing machinery.
due to不正式，一般不倾向选择。replacement和improvements按照逻辑关系是并列关系。
另外triple有名词，就不能使用动名词。
C.   With charcoal’s being replaced by coal asthe fuel used in the smelting of iron ore and several improvements in blowingmachinery, the average output of ironwork tripled over the eighteenth century.
With charcoal's being，是进行式，和tripled output是同时发生的。按照逻辑意思不对。参照OG31题b选项的解释。
D.   The replacement of charcoal with coal forthe fuel used in the smelting of iron ore and several improvements in blowingmachinery, the average output of ironwork tripled over the eighteenth century.
缺少练习，前面是一个名词结构，后面是一个句子。这种时候逻辑意思应该是同位语结构，但需要表示的是因果关系
E.    Charcoal being replaced by coal as the fuelused in the smelting of iron ore, and several improvements in blowingmachinery, which tripled the average output of ironwork over the course of theeighteenth century.
being不对，句子缺少谓语动词

欢迎拍砖。

    我在A和C之间徘徊，觉得A中and前后不平衡，但C也有毛病，with离修饰的主语太长。。
所以很纠结

A中and前后不平衡吧。。虽然说不是选择正确，而是选择最好的，但是怎么衡量评判标准的先后？

我选A,使用排除法，其他都有明显错误。

我觉得做语法题首先应该是逻辑意思合理。
C的问题不在于离得太远，而在于替换和output trippled不是同时发生的.不能用With xx being这种修饰方法。因为两者是因果关系。

A没有明显的错误。trippled (as a result of xx) and (because xxxx)至少分开读是通顺的。
