[問題] SC一題

According to some analysts, whatever its merits, the proposal to tax away
                            -----------------------------------------
all capital gains on short-term investments would, if enacted, have a

disastrous effect on Wall Street trading and employment.


(A) its merits, the proposal to tax
(B) its merits may be, the proposal of taxing
(C) its merits as a proposal, taxing
(D) the proposal's merits, to tax
(E) the proposal's merits are, taxing


答案是A

看解釋是說Whatever是動詞的補語，動詞可以省略。
Whatever+sth., 主句：可以看作是固定結構

為何D不行呢? (用不定式當主句主詞?)

D不行是因為Whatever後要加代名詞所有格嗎?

謝謝^^

推 freefalling:proposal加's 不是很好的用法 相對而言A較簡潔
推 freefalling:另外 是proposal被enacted 不是to tax被enacted
