[問題]Prep-T1-Q94

The decline of the mountain yellow-legged frog in the high reaches of the Sierra Nevada has become severe enough for the United States Fish and Wildlife Service quite possibly to list it as an endangered species in the near future.

(A) severe enough for the United States Fish and Wildlife Service quite possibly to list it
(B) severe enough so that the United States Fish and Wildlife Service could well list them
(C) severe enough for it quite possibly to be listed by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service
(D) so severe that the United States Fish and Wildlife Service could well list it
(E) so severe that they could well be listed by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service

我想問的怎麼排除A選項呢?
(1) it可能會有指代the decline的謬誤嗎?

以下有點離題
(2)我原本以為guite possibly是個奇怪的用法,後來上去google一下發現還真常見..(孤陋寡聞..>"<)
之前常看到有所謂的google大法,請問是怎麼使用的啊?
舉例來說each of a 是我上次考到的考點
我以為是redundant,沒想到google後,發現還是有人用...=.=
該怎麼去判定這種結果呢?

(A) 1. quite possibly 放的位置不大對勁,修飾前面 (for the United States Fish and Wildlife Service)? 還是後面 (to list)?
2. 'enough... to' vs 'so... that' 選後者(介係詞容易有修飾的問題)

請問哪個介係詞有修飾的問題阿?
還有'enough... to' 跟 'so... that' 有句意上的差別嗎?

介係詞常有修飾的問題,一方面是句意,一方面是位置.這一題的 for... 句意不大合理:
(A) 減少(的情況)足夠嚴重是為了 USF & WS 列它為瀕臨絶種---似乎本末倒置了
(B) 被動;減少(的情況)足夠嚴重是為了它被 USF & WS 列瀕臨絶種---也是本末倒置

'enough... to' +V : 足夠... 去 +V
'so... that' : 如此... 以致於
意思不一樣的.
