Unlike the steam locomotive, which required an hour or two of firing up before it was possible to move under its own power, nearly full power could be summoned almost instantly from the cold engine of a diesel locomotive.

A

it was possible to move under its own power, nearly full power could be summoned almost instantly from the cold engine of a diesel locomotive
B

it was possible to move under its own power, the diesel locomotive's engine, when cold, could produce nearly full power almost instantly
C

it could move under its own power, the diesel locomotive could summon nearly full power from a cold engine almost instantly
D

moving under its own power, the cold engine of the diesel locomotive could produce nearly full power almost instantly
E

moving under its own power, almost instantly a diesel locomotive could summon nearly full power from a cold engine

可以知道选C，但是对E选项有一些疑惑

，解释说moving under....忽略了could，这个可以理解。但说almost instantly造成了修饰歧义，这个不大懂，求NN解释

楼主衷心建议研究RON的解释，我和你一样也走过弯路看过那些所谓的语法分析，最后呵呵了。看了RON之后，我才明白SC的精髓在哪里，谷歌一下，国内没有谷歌必应也是很好的，楼主加油

"Unlike the steam locomotive,"lz看到以后这种类似的结构就可以找主句的主语了.
这里考的就是比较,只能是locomotive和locomotive比较,就只剩下C和E了....
然后C和E明显就是C好啊,E感觉特别别扭,而且那个almost instantly放在句首都把意思改变了.....

almost instantly修饰的是后面的动作，修饰语要紧挨修饰部分
