(C) because tourists were exhaling moisture, which had raised the humidity within them to levels such that salt from the stone would crystallize
(D) because of moisture that was exhaled by tourists raising the humidity within them to levels so high as to make the salt from the stone crystallize
(E) because moisture exhaled by tourists had raised the humidity within them to such levels that salt from the stone was crystallizing
(F) because of moisture that was exhaled by tourists raising the humidity within them to levels so high as to make the salt from the stone crystallize
(G) because moisture exhaled by tourists had raised the humidity within them to such levels that salt from the stone was crystallizing
答案解析
A. 错误点(1)：没有 such...so that 的用法，只有 so..that 和 such...that 引导的是结果状语从句;所以错误点(2)：moisture exhaled by tourists, which raised its humidity to 这里是一个非限制性定语从句，而先行词应 该是 moisture，而不是 tourists A 错
B. (1)due to 和 because of 都属于口语话的表达方式，一般在 GMAT 考试中视为错误
(2)and 前后应该平行
C 没有平行
D because of 以及没有平行
E 正确
引申点：
So…. that 既可引导目的状语从句，也可引导结果状从句
Such..that 只能引导结果状语从句
Such as 表列举，往往后面跟的是要列举的事物，而从来就没有such like 的用法，like在GMAT考试中只表示比较

E. the independent candidacies of George Wallace in 1968 and John Anderson in 1980,
答案解析：
A. Unlike连接结构不平行;both of whom引导非限定性定从，running应该改为ran做定从谓语。
B. Unlike连接结构不平行; each和independent candidates单复数不一致。
C. Unlike连接结构不平行;an independent candidate和both单复数不一致;which应该改为whom。
D：Unlike 连接结构 candidates 与run不平行
E: correct
引申点：
Unlike/like 前后连接的结构要对称、平衡、拓展
contrary to：一般接抽象名词(ideas, opinions, or actions)，在句首的时候不需要逻辑主语
in contrast with：后面接具体名词和抽象名词都可以(a difference between people, ideas, situations, things etc)，要求 平行
Unlike/like：可接抽象名词和具体名词，需要平行
Similar=like，different from=unlike，但是similar to和different from一般不可放在句首
Independent run for the presidency表示“独立竞选总统职位” = independent candidacy
