Following the destruction of the space shuttle Challenger, investigators concluded that many key people employed by the National Aeronautics and Space Adminnistration and its contractors work an excessive amount of errors in judgment. (D) overtime, a practice that has the potential for causing (E) overtime, a practice that can, potentially, cause The Answer is D But I selected E. Is there any good explanation for that. Or the answer is wrong.

我觉得D对，E把名词potential改成副词potentially, 还有强加情态动词can ,本来has the potential已经有‘可能’的意思，再加can不是多余吗？意思重复。

E is correct.

D is correct for sure.

I agree with E

me for E's simple

E is right.我觉得E的表达比较简洁，而且potential for用法也不对。

我选F好了

这题我也有问题
can表达不确定性的程度不知有多大
我知道表不确定性用may, would, could, 确定性用will, do
如果can也有相当不确定性 can potentially便不佳

has the potential to do 应也比用for来的强得多吧
用for不太好

英语里有has potentially for doing sth， 当然这些语法钻起牛角尖来实在厉害，本人是english major，也对ets的语法题目刮目相看！英语口语中常说has potential in doing sth，当然是不正式的用法，我同意（D）

sorry, 上面的‘has potentially’ should be “has potential for doing”,笔误！
