Scientists believe that unlike the males of most species of moth, the male whistling moths of Numbing, Australia, call female moths to them by the use of acoustical signals, but not olfactory ones, and they attract their mates during the day, rather than at night.
A. by the use of acoustical signals, but not olfactory ones, and they attract
B. by the use of acoustical signals instead of using olfactory ones, and attracting
C. by using acoustical signals, not using olfactory ones, and by attracting
D. using acoustical signals, rather than olfactory ones, and attract
E. using acoustical signals, but not olfactory ones, and attracting

正确是D，想问一下D里面using acoustical signals前面为什么不加by呢，在这里using...是什么结构呀？是否是伴随状语? 谢谢各位了！！！

分词作状语修饰call这个动作

谢谢了，亲~
但我还是有点疑问：
你的意思是说using在这里是作状语，那如果在using前面加逗号句子还是正确的吗？
就想这个句子一样：A one-million-year-old skull has been found in the Afar region of Eritrea,
indicating

modern humans developed much earlier than previously thought

这个句子是分词引导的分句做伴随状语伴随前面整句导致的结果

而这个结果依然是前面出现过的动词——found导致的。

LZ去看一下manhattan的verb modifier那章，听听赵丽关于分词的那几节课，应该就不会有这些疑问啦

亲，谢谢咯~~~

我去曼哈顿网站上看了看相关的“ing”修饰语的用法，看到RON的总结说：
if you have a present participial (-ing) modifier that follows a comma, it is unambiguously an adverbial modifier, which modifies the action of the preceding clause.

if there is no comma, then it's an adjective modifier that is committed to the immediately preceding noun.

examples:

james mistakenly turned off the highway, heading toward louisville --> adverbial modifier.
this sentence means that james wound up going to louisville because of the wrong turn he made (i.e., he meant to go to, say, lexington instead).

james mistakenly turned off the highway heading toward louisville --> adjective modifier.
this sentence means that james didn't go to louisville, because he accidentally turned off the highway that goes to louisville.

而这道题的用法和RON的解释有矛盾诶，using应该是adverbial modifier，但为什么前面没有逗号呢？

是的，我也有这一问，做的时候很犹豫痛选了A，猜but not是某一个固定用法，最后错了~

其他根据末尾直接就可以选D了

隔了这么久又发现了自己的贴~
从其他贴哪里找到了这个链接，里面有RON的解释，很赞很经典~

BTW,还是想吐槽一下这道题实在是太狗血了...

所以还是using的两种用法吗。当做类似于with的介词？还是优先看平行呢
