The modernization program for the steel mill will cost approximately 51 million dollars, which it is hoped can be completed in the late1980’s.

(A) The modernization program for the steel mill will cost approximately 51 million dollars, which it is hoped can be completed in the late1980’s.

(B) The modernization program for the steel mill, hopefully completed in the late1980’s, will cost approximately 51 million dollars.

(C) Modernizing the steel mill, hopefully to be completed in the late1980’s, will cost approximately 51 million dollars.

(E) Modernizing the steel mill, a program that can, it is hoped, be completed in the late1980’s, will cost approximately 51 million dollars.

请看官方解释，并注意反斜部分：Choice A can be faulted because which grammatically refers to 51 million dollars, the nearest noun phrase. At any rate, it is not clear in choices A, B, C, or D whether the modernization program or the steel mil is supposed to be completed in the late1980’s. In B and C, the use of hopefully for it is hoped still meets with strong and widespread objection from many editors, lexicographers, and authors of usage handbooks. Aside from having an ambiguous which, D contains no independent clause and so cannot stand as a sentence. Choice E is the correct answer for this very difficult question.

(B) it is hoped, can provide enough power that will set

(C) hopefully can provide enough power, this will set
