对对对！最先应该找硬伤。上面那题语义上后半截应该排除用被动的选项，最后就只剩C, D了 ...

你们这些同学理不理解现在分词作状语的用法啊？？D明显有逻辑错误！

在句首 comma+现在分词作状语表伴随“主句的动作，或结果”，即是，现在分词的动作发生时间是同时or滞后与主句动作。看看D项，主句是 CC sailed west... +comma+having done，在逻辑意思上就变成 “在CC向西航行的同时或随后时间，CC被国王王后指派外出航行。完全不合逻辑！

此外，要注意的是，have+done在表达的时间上是早于v-ed动词，更加验证了comma+having done在GMAT里面是绝对错误的。做了1000左右SC题目，这样的搭配从来没正确过！

可是也没有其他更合适的选项了呀～

按照你们这么说为什么D里面后面是sailed前面是accept，不要说一致么，一致在哪里，不要纠结于用rather than 还是instead of这根本就不是问题关键，不要人生只如初见

这道题我觉得很迷
1、rather than accept 动词原形居然可以放在句首修饰主语？
而且居然不是accepted，为什么还能和sailed平行= =
2、instead of ving，sb. did sth.这个不是很常见吗，为什么不对

另外，Having been这个modifier没有问题。ron说过having done做限定性定语错，可以做非限定修饰。
The man having won the race is my brother. 错
楼上说一定要做结果，但是明明ving modifier也可以做伴随吧。这里就是同时发生啊。被命令出海，然后他就去了。

rather than后面如果跟V ..必须是原形

C.  Instead of accepting the conventional wisdom that the earth was flat, Christopher Columbus sailed west to see whether he could reach India, having been sent by the king and queen of Spain.

D.  Rather than accept the conventional wisdom that the earth was flat, Christopher Columbus sailed west to see whether he could reach India, having been sent by the king and queen of Spain.

个人理解
C,D应该是没区别的... 都是各自正确用法，含义上也没多大区别

恩，rather than后面加原形这个加进笔记了~然后貌似gmat比较喜欢rather than+动词。= =

The "of" in "instead of" is a preposition, and its object must be a noun. Thus, "instead of" can only be used to compare single nouns, and the GMAT Sentence Correction seems to avoid even this use. The GMAT also seems to avoid the "instead of" [gerund] structure. The "than" in "rather than" is a subordinate clause, so the structure "rather than" is considerably more flexible in what can follow it.

曼哈顿语法有一条：
有一个很短的谓语放在中间，把很长的修饰语放在后面
A new CEO has been hired who will transform the company by decentralizing authority to various division heads while increasing their accountability through the use of public scorecards.(O)
A new CEO who will transform the company by decentralizing authority to various division heads while increasing their accountability through the use of public scorecards has been hired.(X)

感觉这道题的D把修饰哥伦布的那一坨having been放在最后可能就是这个原因（虽然谓语也不短
