刚做了到题：
J.S. Bach was more prolific in terms of sheer hours of music composed than was any other classical composer, including over two hundred complete cantatas and almost 500 separate works for solo instruments.

A.J.S. Bach was more prolific in terms of sheer hours of music composed than was any other classical composer
B.J.S. Bach was more prolific in terms of sheer hours of music composed than any other classical composer
C.J.S. Bach was more prolific than any other classical composer in terms of sheer hours of music composed
D.J.S. Bach, more prolific than any other classical composer in terms of sheer hours of music composed
E.In terms of sheer hours of music composed, J.S. Bach was more prolific than any other classical composer

OA: C

其中给出排除ABE的理由是逗号including必须就近修饰逻辑合理的music,

我就费解了，不是说好的逗号现在分词修饰的都是前面的整个句子的逻辑主语吗？还是说只是including这么用？
以下是beat GMAT的 instructor 的解释：
COMMA + including must refer to the NEAREST PRECEDING PLURAL NOUN.
The following is an OA from GMAC:
The new image of Stone Age people has emerged from the examination of tools found in Germany, including three wooden spears.
Here, including refers to tools, the nearest preceding plural noun.

还是比较不太确定，谁来解答一下？

逗号现在分词修饰的都是前面的整个句子的逻辑主语，但是这题找不到合适的逻辑主语呀。

所以只能作为Noun-modifer了，就近修饰。

建议看看Mahattan关于现在分词的用法吧。

现在分词的用法我知道额，只是有时候会经常看到某些题就变成了就近修饰，不太懂为什么。外国论坛一般都是一致的解释为就近修饰。

LZ,你真的确定including是修饰music吗？请再仔细读句子，弄懂它的意思。including在这里是进一步举例解释说明了J.S. Bach was more prolific in terms of sheer hours of music composed，个人认为这道题选C，更多的是出于语感的连贯，不至于像其他的选项读着别扭。
