刚刚做OC时，遇到一题如下
  [% A0 E) U% G5 L: j; }$ D  bThe newspaper (reported that)(having) the increase in the minimum wage,(many people) are still having trouble( making) ends meet.(No error)

答案是第二个括号有问题。
. E3 X1 D! T8 l- w: _* N9 f. j4 u7 O我有一点疑问，关于第一个括号，reported是过去时,和后面are still having是不是矛盾了？
/ A  L5 r; X) i/ v7 b
) O9 Q2 c$ o6 `- R' I* ]  s- `! {请教语法高手！
5 x: C/ e3 }5 G: M" \% {先谢过！

应该是:The newspaper reported that had the increase in the minimum wage, many people are still having trouble( making) ends meet.
+ w" F2 h3 b  w算是虚拟语气把，就是说，即使提高了最低收入，很多人仍入不敷出
$ p, @! T5 j# z, b% a主句是The newspaper reported
& ~$ `! J6 {4 d: R7 j不必时态一致
