Unlike other Mayan cities, Cancun's commercial power throughout the lowlands seems to be from using its strategic position at the foot of the highlands, which were a source of jade, obsidian, and other valuable commodities.

关于D选项的疑问,RON大神的解释是说,D选项中的which修饰前面的highlands,第一个是meaning不对,第二是highlands是复数,动词的单复数也错了。但是RON有一期课讲“which”的用法时好像说过,which是可以修饰the NOUN + PRE PHRASE that immediately precedes the comma。那D选项中为什么不能理解成which是修饰strategic position(noun)+ at the foot of the highland (pre phrase)呢?
所以我觉得不是关注which这个地方。但是which指不到strategic position去,最多是说指代foot of the highlands / highlands 的问题
i do believe that we've seen examples in which relative pronouns stand for the entire phrase 'X of Y' rather than just the Y immediately preceding the comma, but that situation is rare indeed and should be avoided unless absolutely necessary (= it happens in all the choices, so you can't get away from it).
in this case, then, choice e, which avoids this whole relative-pronoun mess, is certainly preferable to choice d, which doesn't.
