题目源自 GMAT,正解 (E),为何选项(A) 不正确?
The computer company has announced that it will purchase
the color-printing division of a rival company for $950
million, which is part of a deal that will make
it the largest manufacturer in the office color-printing market.
(A) million, which is part of a deal that will make
(B) million, a part of a deal that makes
(C) million, part of a deal making
(D) million as a part of a deal to make
(E) million as part of a deal that will make
B, C, D 的错误解说,在 Manhattan GMAT 的 Ron 神已交代

问题是选项(A)
目前网络上我能找到的所有解释,都只说选项(A)的 which 修饰了 $950M
因为修饰错对象(正确应为“并购”这件事而非“$950M”),所以不正确。
但“逗点 + which”这种非限定用法,不也可以吗?
此时的 which 不再修饰“最靠近”的名词 $950M,而是前面的整个子句
那么这样看的话,选项(A)错在哪里?
