题目：

In the year following an eight-cent increase in the federal tax on a pack of cigarettes, sales of cigarettes fell ten percent.  In contrast, in the year prior to the tax increase, sales had fallen one percent.  The volume of cigarette sales is therefore strongly related to the after-tax price of a pack of cigarettes.
 
The argument above requires which of following assumptions?

选项:

A、During the year following the tax increase, the pretax price of a pack of cigarettes did not increase by as much as it had during the year prior to the tax increase.
B、The one percent fall in cigarette sales in the year prior to tax increase was due to a smaller tax increase.
C、The pretax price of a pack of cigarettes gradually decreased throughout the year before and the year after the tax increase.
D、For the year following the tax increase, the pretax price of a pack of cigarettes was not eight or more cents lower than it had been the previous year.

Construction of the Roman Colosseum, which was officially known as the Flavian Amphitheater, began in A.D. 69, during the reign of Vespasian, was completed a decade later, during the reign of Titus, who opened the Colosseum with a one-hundred-day cycle of religious pageants, gladiatorial games, and spectacles.
不太明白A里，为什么不能把“began in A.D. 69, during the reign of Vespasian”当做同位语呢？ 比如：Construction(代称C) of...., which(修饰C)...., began in AD(verb+ed做同位语/独立主格去修饰C)...was completed later (C的谓语和宾语)...... 请问老师这里我是遗漏了什么原则吗？如何判断什么时候verb+ed是当谓语动词，什么时候是做同位语/对主格修饰呢？ 谢谢

Archaeologists in Egypt have excavated a 5,000-year-old wooden hull that is the earliest surviving example of a "built" boat--in other words, a boat constructed out of planks fitted together--and that thus represents a major advance, in terms of boat-building technology, over the dugout logs and reed vessels of more ancient vintage.

The proliferation of so-called cybersquatters, people who register the Internet domain names of high-profile companies in hopes of reselling the rights to those names for a profit, led to passing the Anti-Cybersquatting Consumer Protection Act in 1999, allowing companies to seek up to $100,000 in damages against those who register domain names with the sole intent of selling them later.
对B选项的解释是：B错在comma + which修饰了1999. 我对这里有个疑惑，comma + which做modifier时不是可以轻微跳跃吗？我以为comma+which只是不能跳过动词去修饰，但可以跳过一个modifier或者介词短语去修饰前面的名词。 比如：The chairman of the authority is a member of the Tristate Automobile Club, which has registered strong opposition to the proposed toll increase. 这里的which不是在修饰a member吗？ 这条原则我是不是理解错了？或者我应该忘掉这条原则来做题？ 谢谢！
