Like the great navigators who first sailed around the Earth, to gather information about its size and curvature of its surface, new observations have been made by astronomers that show with startling directness the large-scale geometry of the universe.
(A) Like the great navigators who first sailed around the Earth, to gather information about its size and curvature of its surface, new observations have been made by astronomers
(B) Like the great navigators who first sailed around the Earth for gathering information about its size and also the curvature of its surface, new observations have been made by astronomers
(C) Similar to the great navigators who first sailed around the Earth, where they gathered information about its size and the curvature of its surface, astronomers have made new observations
(D) Like the great navigators who first sailed around the Earth gathering information about its size and the curvature of its surface, astronomers have made new observations
(E) Just as with the great navigators who first sailed around the Earth, gathering information about its size and curvature of the surface, astronomers have made new observations
答案是d.可是around the Earth gathering information 这个gathering 不成了修饰earth的了？，怎么也修饰不到navigators上啊
不能这样说的，gathering是状语与around...并列修饰sailed，不是定语
那为什么前面不加逗号呢，印象中动名词做伴随状语一般都是前面加个逗号的
如果不加那就引起歧义了啊，就像我理解的这样
