E. Many of Guy de Maupassant's short stories have become classics because he slowly revealed a tragic twist of fate at the end of each piece, demonstrating his famed and masterful use of irony

题目来自Thursday with Ron的2012-01-05，正确答案选D
A&C Famed for his masterful use of irony，修饰的是many of Guy de Maupassant's short stories，错误
B&E he不能代指Guy de Maupassant's，后者是一个形容词，错误

对B&D有一个疑惑：
B选项：evident in the slow revelation of a tragic twist of fate at the end of each piece=====>这句话修饰的为什么不是主语，而是irony？
D选项：evidenced in the slow revelation of a tragic twist of fate at the end of each piece=====>V-ed过去分词作状语，不是应该修饰的是主语吗？但是这选项正确的话，那么evidenced....修饰的就是irony
这里对他们的修饰对象不是很懂耶

对于这样的modifier（comma+V-ed或者comma+adj.)，还有什么规则吗？是否还和放置位置有关？求各位大佬解释，谢谢~

也是刚刚听完这节课。。试着讨论一下~
adj.和，v-ed应该都是noun modifier，尽量touch 它修饰的modifier，而且从句意来看修饰irony非常合理
但是我又想到有一个问题，不知道COMMA+v-ed和COMMA+v-ing是否有区别，后者能修饰preceding clause，不知道前者行不行
希望有NN来帮忙解答~
