The Kwakiutl recognized one social unit larger than the tribe--the confederacy, which was a cluster
of loosely knit, informally related neighboring tribes who interacted with themselves more often than
between other tribes.

(A) tribes who interacted with themselves more often than between
(B) tribes who interacted among each other more often than among
(C) tribes who interacted with one another more often than with
(D) tribes, interacting among each other more often than between
(E) tribes, interacting among one another more often than with

DE选项中的 interacting是修饰the confederacy，还是前面整个句子？还是应该就近修饰tribes的？想知道，ing的用法

【present participle with comma用法--by Ron】
1、if comma + -ing follows a clause, it should describe the action (and, at least indirectly, the subject) of that clause. This is in fact the entire reason for the existence of this construction,
2、if comma + -ing DOESN'T follow a whole clause -- if it just follows a noun -- then it will modify only that noun.
E.g. tom, trying to reach all the way across the table, lost his balance.
3、if a comma + -ING modifier follows a complex expression that has more than one subject+verb pair, then you may have to use a certain amount of common sense to distinguish what is modified. The modifier still must modify the same rules, but could refer to either of the subject/verb combinations.【就是說主句裏面含有從句，使得主句的[subject + verb] > 1 pair，這種情況下present participle with comma修飾的是哪個pair的[subject + verb]，需要meaning和common sense來確定】

僅從grammar角度，interact修飾the confederacy was a blah~，同時應用于the confederacy-->interact動作執行者就是confederacy
