题目分析：
本题的主干信息为：
Both the Federal Reserve's decision and investors' speculation helped to bolster the dollar.
选项分析：
选项A：首先，宾语从句that borrowing rates be raised（decision显然是动词decide的名词化结果，所以，逻辑上，这个从句是decide的宾语）应改为不定式短语to raise borrowing rates，这点考查了不定式和从句的区别。用之于本题，由于decide的约束力较强，所以必须用不定式短语。另外，平行触发语both应该搭配and，不能搭配along with。
选项B：宾语从句应改为不定式错误同(A)；另外，speculation身后的结构为of possibly another increase on the way，该定语（同(A)解释，应该是逻辑宾语）的核心词为increase。其应该改为宾语从句that another increase might be on the way，这个从句的核心词为be on the way这个状态。显然地，推断（speculation）的内容应该是“上升正在来的路上”这一状态，而不是“上升”是本身。
选项C：Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
选项D：both…and…习惯搭配错误同选项(A)。由于make deposits more attractive的发出者是decision和speculation，所以代词it应改为复数代词they。
选项E：另外，speculation身后的结构为of possibly another increase on the way的核心词错误同(B)。
一开始以为both...and平行必须“短语”对“短语”，或者“句子”对“句子”，哐哐秒选E，没有进一步领会句意。
speculation that another increase might be on the way清楚解释是increase on the way
不过speculation和possibly和might不都语义重复吗？
spectuation 是指整个clause
而increase might be on the way则是主观发生的，speculation的内容应该是“上升正在来的路上”这件事，而不是对”可能发生的上升“的推断，另外speculation 和 possibly语意重复
还有一点，E选项会令人觉得，是speculation on the way，语意错误
一开始不能理解为何speculation后面是宾语从句，难道不是定语从句（后面的句子修饰speculation）？
虽说这两个表达的意思差不多，但也不能叫宾语从句吧...前面没有动词也没有介词，不应该出现宾语的。我觉得应该解释成speculation的同位语从句
我也是偏向于理解为同位语从句或者定语从句
嗯~that在从句里不做任何成分，应该是同位语从句吧

做题时纠结to和that不平行。。这不构成大问题
②总感觉possibly another increase很诡异 觉得用possible就完全可以
③they的指代非常不清楚 完全不如C直接清楚
and investors' speculation that another increase might be on the way (强调对another increase might
be on the way 这件事情的推测, 而不是对increase。找到重心核心）
helped to bolster the dollar in recent weeks by making。
Help to do sth.
