题目分析：
在时态上我们要注意，主句用一般现在时并不意味着宾语从句也要用现在时，相反地，主句用一般过去时也不意味着宾语从句也要用一般过去时；宾语从句的时态往往会独立于主句时态。
选项分析：
A选项：前面是had reached adulthood，后面是have been attacked by，而事实上前者发生在后者的后面，时态混乱，而且人类在reach adulthood之后不会再有成长阶段，所以不应该用had reached adulthood，而应该用一般过去时；再者，由于be attack发生在reach adulthood前面，所以有明显的时间对比，应该be attack用过去完成时had been attacked。
B选项：reach的时态有误，同时使得had been attacked没有时间对比来说明be attack是发生在过去的过去。
C选项：Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
D选项：were attacked和reach时态错误同选项(A)。
E选项：adulthood身后少了逗号，插入语必须头尾用两个逗号将其隔开，例如：
James, a famous movie star, is friendly.
例句中，a famous movie star就是插入语，被两个逗号隔开。
考点是时态！！！
