标题: 不懂就问 which修饰问题
Originally developed for detecting air pollutants, a technique called proton-induced X-ray emission, which can quickly analyze the chemical elements in almost any substance without destroying it, is finding uses in medicine, archaeology, and criminology.

(A) Originally developed for detecting air pollutants, a technique called proton-induced X-ray emission, which can quickly analyze the chemical elements in almost any substance without destroying it,

(B) Originally developed for detecting air pollutants, having the ability to analyze the chemical elements in almost any substance without destroying it, a technique called proton-induced X-ray emission

(C) A technique originally developed for detecting air pollutants, called proton-induced X-ray emission, which can quickly analyze the chemical elements in almost any substance without destroying it,

(D) A technique originally developed for detecting air pollutants, called proton-induced X-ray emission, which has the ability to analyze the chemical elements in almost any substance quickly and without destroying it,

(E) A technique that was originally developed for detecting air pollutants and has the ability to analyze the chemical elements in almost any substance quickly and without destroying the substance, called proton-induced X-ray emission,

这道题选A，对答案没什么疑问，就是对OG的解释有个地方不太理解。
对于A选项OG的解释说： the nonrestrictive clause which … destroying it is correctly placed next to emission
但是对于C，D选项OG的解释说：relative clause introduced by which incorrectly and illogically modifies emission
可是这两个选项在which的用法上好像看不出什么差别，求大神解释！！谢谢

不是大神，说一下个人看法～
一般来说，这种主语+【修饰语1】+【修饰语2】的结构，写成【修饰语1】+主语+【修饰语2】更好，因为modifier的第一原则就是离被修饰对象越近越好，写成夹心饼干的样子，两个modifier都挨着主语了，自然比第一种好

至于CD和A的区别，我觉得就是CD的which和technique离得太远了，中间隔了整整两个过去分词短语；而A的which前面紧跟的就是主语+过去分词短语的结构，比CD更没歧义。

再加上这里一共有3个modifier修饰technique，A的分散排布比CD的开火车排布表达的意思也更清楚～

我好像有一点理解了
我觉得OG的意思是在说A中which修饰放在emission旁边，是在修饰a technique，特别是OG有强调called前不能加逗号；
C是说which放在了emission旁边变成了修饰emission，而且a technique和emission用逗号隔了好远，已经修饰不到technique了
