The Quechuans believed that all things participated in both the material level and the mystical level of reality, and many individual Quechuans claimed to have contact with it directly with an ichana (dream) experience.
contact with it directly with
direct contact with it by way of
contact with the last directly through
direct contact with the latter by means of
contact directly with the mystical level due to
题目分析：
本题并列连词and身后的意思是：
很多Q人被称为和ichana通过梦境有直接的接触。
选项分析：
A选项：代词it的指代对象为语境中合理的单数名词。本身其在逻辑上指代the mystical level of reality没有问题，但是，由于本题中the mystical level of reality和the material level是在同一个both and短语中的，即，两者被融为了一体，所以这造成了it无法单独指代the mystical level of reality的问题。另外，directly是副词，只能修饰动词have或者介词短语with an ichana (dream) experience等非名词成分，但在逻辑上，其应修饰名词contact，即，直接的接触。
B选项：代词it指代错误同选项(A)。
C选项：副词directly错误同选项(A)。
D选项：Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
E选项：副词directly错误同选项(A)。另外，due to通常用来表示原因而不是方法。
possible interpretation #2:
contact with the latter directly through...
i.e., we are not sure whether the actual contact is direct, but the dream experience is the only channel of transmission.
C:Ron
possible interpretation #1:
contact with the latter directly through...
i.e., the contact is what is direct; the dream experience is just a conduit. in this interpretation, "through" is not used with directly; therefore, it's possible, in this interpretation, that the dream experience is only one of a number of consecutive channels through which contact is achieved.
"Due to" does modify nouns, but it's typically used after the verb "to be."
For example, "His team's win today was due to better conditioning."
due to =caused by 表原因
the latter指二者后出现的那一个
directly修饰歧义-have 或者with an ichana (dream) experience 应修饰contact
C the last三者以上
Due to =caused by 一般当形容词用，在名词或者be动词后面 放在句首一般错
不优：I was late due to traffic
正确：my lateness was due to traffic
directly有修饰contact或with an ichana experience的歧义：修饰contact时意为通过ichana来直接接触，修饰with短语意为只能通过ichana来接触
这题我选了C. 两者之间的后者应该用latter.但是原先并不知道副词directly不可以用来修饰contact.
代词it的指代对象为语境中合理的单数名词。本身其在逻辑上指代the mystical level of reality没有问题，但是，由于本题中the mystical level of reality和the material level是在同一个both and短语中的，即，两者被融为了一体，所以这造成了it无法单独指代the mystical level of reality的问题。
那D的the latter不也是指代“融为一体”中的其中一个么？
the latter严格来讲不是代词，而是当有两者时特指后出现的那一个，所以自然用在both...and...这里指代and身后的对象再好不过啦～

在both and结构中会把两者融为一体，使得后面的it无法指代的问题排除AB
directly是副词只能修饰动词have还有非名词性成分，所以应当使用direct
