D is definitely not the correct choice. "not as hard as" needs to be followed by a noun, not an action; the usage of that phrase in D is incorrect. For example, we could say: Bob's head is not as hard as Fred's; but we can't say: Bob's head is not as hard as to make Fred's would be. Choice (B) is out due to parallelism... "hard enough to make" isn't parallel to "soft enough AS to cause". (C) also has parallelism issues... "so hard as to make" doesn't match up with "soft enough so it causes". Similarly, in (E), "making burrowing difficult" isn't parallel to "to cause tunnels to collapse". Only (A) passes the parallelism test... choose (A)!

平行啊平行!first get the idea what grammar point the sentence is testing, then pick and reserve the one that seems most correct. read all five sentences, double check, and confirm answer!

选项中的it实际上都指代的是soil,在解释他为什么是理想材料的原因。 so that两结构之间很平行,都是说它的特性导致的结果。
