Phones are increasingly common, many people now using their mobile phones
To make calls across a wide region at night and on weekends, when numerous
Wireless companies provide unlimited airtime for a relatively small monthly fee.
A. Because of wireless service costs plummeting in the last year, and as
Mobile phones are increasingly common, many people.
B. As the cost of wireless service plummeted in the last year and as mobile
Phones became increasingly common, many people.
C. In the last year, with the cost of wireless service plummeting, and mobile
Phones have become increasingly common, there are many people.
D. With the cost of wireless service plummeting in the last year and mobile
Phones becoming increasingly common, many people are
E. While the cost of wireless service has plummeted in the last year and
Mobile phones are increasingly common, many people are.
答案是D，我选的E，我总是分不清什么时候用with可以，希望牛牛们给解释一下！！！
in the last year一定要用过去时么，什么时候必须要用过去时，什么时候必须要用完成时？！
prep2-Q175确认答案D。 E因为while表示转折含义而with的独立主格结构表示原因等 而根据原文应该是表示因果关系 所以E中是加入了原文没有的转折含义 逻辑含义错误； 同时last year是明显的过去时态用法 不对
建议LZ在最后两个混淆选项上更加依靠逻辑关系而不是某个语法点进行判断
Because of wireless service costs plummeting in the last year, and as mobile

A. Because of wireless service costs plummeting in the last year, and as mobile phones are increasingly common, many people.
B. As the cost of wireless service plummeted in the last year and as mobile phones became increasingly common, many people.
C. In the last year, with the cost of wireless service plummeting, and mobile phones have become increasingly common, there are many people.
D. With the cost of wireless service plummeting in the last year and mobile phones becoming increasingly common, many people are
E. While the cost of wireless service has plummeted in the last year and mobile phones are increasingly common, many people are.
A B 主句无谓语动词。
C, with the cost of…无修饰对象，and mobile phones have …无并列对象。
D, 正确。 with 短语修饰many people, with 有have 的意思，with 短语表达的意思清楚的解释了many people are now using their mobile phone 的原因，逻辑正确。With 短语中的and连接的２个分词短语平行对称。
E, the cost of wireless service has plummeted in the last year, 注意时间副词in the last year, 这个副词指代过去，要用过去时态。如要用完成时态则需要改为over the last year.
While 作为连词
1，有转折的意思，如： While I admit that there problems, I don’t agree that they cannot be solved. 尽管我承认有问题存在，
但我不同意说这些问题不能解决。（摘自《牛津高阶英汉双解词典》）。
2，while也有对比的意思，
如：
I drink black coffee while he prefers it with cream. 我爱喝清咖啡而他喜欢家奶油的。
（摘自《牛津高阶英汉双解词典》）
3，while 在…期间，当…的时候
如：
He fell asleep while (he was) doing his homework. 他做着功课就睡着了。（摘自《牛津高阶英汉双解词典》）
但while没有“解释”的意思，
显然，在E项中，the cost plummeted 和
mobile phone becoming increasingly common 解释了many people are using mobile phone to …而while 不具有“解释”的含义。
要用because, because of 之类表解释的词才符合原文的逻辑，用while显然不合逻辑。

这里不是with的问题，E主要错误是has plummeted是完成时，跟后面的last year不符D的话用with引导两个有逻辑 ...
