"an overwhelming proportion of ..." is a quantity expression. most such expressions, although the words themselves are singular, take grammatically plural forms because they represent quantities that are clearly plural in number.
for instance, percentages, proportions, fractions, and the like fall into this category.
A： note that the construction "that verbed" is just a modifier that modifies the word "act". modifiers are disposable in considering the grammatical structure of a sentence, so you're left with "the act also verbed". that's a complete sentence that is not problematic.
the modifier comma + "making" is illogical, because it would have to modify "was approved on {date x}" -- thus implying that the act made these things happen as a result of the date on which it was ratified. that's nonsense -- these are two different facts about the act, (a) the date when it was ratified and (b) what it actually did.
两个考点
一、
ok Something enables people to hear sounds.
x Something enables sounds to be heard by people.
二、
x Coming home from school, the wind blew me off my bike.
modifier—>who/what was coming home?
Study的主语一定要是人来study
仔细研究了一下expect这个词，Expect除了有期待的意思还有预计/估计的意思，不管是哪种情况，这个词在英文中暗含了——这个事情很有可能会发生的含义。所以，她的约束力都是强的。甚至当你说I expect sth....this implies that you believe it is your right to have that. 所以在这种情况下，当句子expect automakers出现时，一定是强约束力，所以永远是expect sb to do sth. 但是，如果要在后面加that 或者名词，就要直接跟在expect的后面而不是expect automakers that....立刻减弱了expect内在的“强势”的内涵。
