请教啊~~GMAT语法中which一定是就近修饰原则吗？

今天做GWD套题，遇到这样一道题，要颠覆我自己之前的一个想法了。。
Emily Dickinson’s letters to Susan Huntington Dickinson were written over a period beginning a few years before Susan’s marriage to Emily’s brother and ending shortly before Emily’s death in 1886, outnumbering her letters to anyone else.

Dickinson were written over a period beginning a few years before Susan’s marriage to Emily’s brother and ending shortly before Emily’s death in 1886, outnumbering
Dickinson were written over a period that begins a few years before Susan’s marriage to Emily’s brother and ended shortly before Emily’s death in 1886, outnumber
Dickinson, written over a period beginning a few years before Susan’s marriage to Emily’s brother and that ends shortly before Emily’s death in 1886and outnumbering
Dickinson, which were written over a period beginning a few years before Susan’s marriage to Emily’s brother, ending shortly before Emily’s death in 1886, and outnumbering
Dickinson, which were written over a period beginning a few years before Susan’s marriage to Emily’s brother and ending shortly before Emily’s death in 1886, outnumber

这道题的答案是E，其他部分我可以理解，但是GMAT语法中的which有一定是就近修饰原则的说法吗？因为如果是这样，E中which就是修饰Dickinson了，而实际应该修饰letter，所以我就纠结了。。我选A。

求牛人解答！！

我开始也不理解，后面看manhattan回复说：
1、which就近修饰的问题： X of Y，which, 有三种情况：
1）如果which修饰Y逻辑上说的过去，which修饰Y
2）which修饰Y无意义，但是修饰X有意义，which可以修饰X of Y
3) which修饰X和Y都无意义，就要考虑逻辑上存在问题了
2、如果主句用的被动语态，一般不用现在分词来表达主句所产生的结果Some people say that using a present participle phrase to express the (direct/indirect) result of the preceding clause is not allowed when the preceding clause is in a passive voice.其实我也不懂他解释的是神马，但是我觉得在这里were written during a time和outnumbering不存在结果关系，所以用outnumbering有点奇怪

哈哈，我也是新手，一起学习~

不一定。。。which后面是were，说明指代的是一个复数名次，最近的复数名词只有letters，从语法从逻辑来看都不会指代dick....

A +简单的修饰结构（比如这里的 to D）
which是可以跳跃修饰的，仅限在修饰B不合理（如逻辑意思不对，单复数不一致）的情况下，最好还是不要跳跃修饰

这里就是修饰D的话主谓不一致不合理，必须要求跳跃修饰

你所说的简单的修饰结构，还有哪些呢？

比如简单的x of y
x+一个简单的介词结构

X 中心语.... 跟了一个介词短语, 那么X 还是此句的中心语, 那么which可以修饰前面的这个中心语言.
A错, 因为, Letters were writeen and end ( 动词), outnumbering ( 伴随状语), End 那里用了Ing 表示伴随, 因此说不通.

B错, outnumber 这里和其他动词的关系是什么呢? Letters were written and eded, outnumber, ( 结构不对), 可以是 Letters were written, ended, and outnumber, 并列关系.
C 错, 太错乱了, 成不了句,
D 错, 成不了句, 没有谓语
E, 对, begining of , ending of 时间状语, which句子是一个从句, 修饰lettes, outnumber 是谓语.

我也是因为查Which 的修饰作用碰到了这个题, which 是就近修饰, 但是还是要看一下前一句话的中心语是什么.

A , 如果OUtnumber 不加ing , 也可以,
