试着解释,欢迎challenge.

E 最先排除,主动改被动且没有特别理由-错;前四项的主语都是settlers,E却强调homes且没有任何支持,改变原意-又错。

AB排除, do it-必错。且B中逗号后did-过去式结构必错。

C make sth. 结构缺补语-错;while not having sth. -必错。

D简洁,make do without 在没有...的情况下

不知道可不可以这样来看,这种结构逗号后面用doing形式是修饰前面一整句的,如果直接用doing it without或did it without的话意思变成了继续在修饰settlers,所以用making do without要好一些。请指教。

同意楼上的观点,因为making是真正表达了作者的意图--修饰build的.而如果用doing的话会有修饰对象不明确的嫌疑
