In 2000, a mere two dozen products accounted for half the increase in spending on prescription drugs, a phenomenon that is explained not just because of more expensive drugs but by the fact that doctors are writing many more prescriptions for higher-cost drugs.

题目分析：
本题中原文的划线部分是整个主句的同位语，(D)(E)两个选项是非限定性定语从句，只能就近修饰一个名词。
选项分析：
A选项：not…but…是平行制造者，它们连接的两者需要在语法上平行，即，not by…but by…或not because of…but because of…。本选项中它们连接的两者不平行。
B选项：Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
C选项：because of是介词，其身后的 drugs that are becoming more expensive和doctors having also written many more prescriptions for higher-cost drugs均为名词短语，这两个名词短语的核心词分别是drugs和doctors。在逻辑上，原因应该是“药物变贵”和“医生开处方”这两件事，而不是药和医生这两个名词，因此本选项是错误的。
D选项：which occurred是非限定性定语从句，就近修饰先行词prescription drugs，在逻辑上，能被解释的肯定是“一个现象”而不是一种药。
E选项：which occurred错误同(D)。
because of +短语——核心词为名词；
not///but...后可以跟句子，描述事情
