Diesel engines burn as much as 30% less fuel than gasoline engines of comparable size, as well as emitting far less carbon dioxide gas and far fewer of the other gasses that have been implicated in global warming.
A. of comparable size, as well as emitting far less carbon dioxide gas and far fewer of the other gasses that have
B. of comparable size, as well as emit far less carbon dioxide gas and far fewer of the other gasses having
C. of comparable size, and also they emit far fewer carbon dioxide and other gasses that have
D. that have a comparable size, and also they emit far fewer of the other gasses having
E. that have a comparable size, as well as emitting far fewer of the other gasses having

Ans: A
因为漏掉了重要信息，排除了DE
B的having been修饰不对，as well as不做连词，run on
我的问题是，A和C都有点问题
1. A的as well as emitting 怎么看怎么不顺眼，可以当做emitting来表达结果状语吗？
2. C的they 是不是有指代歧义，fewer不可修饰不可数名词carbon dioxide？如果这个修饰问题是绝对性错误的话，那就只好选A了
不知道是不是这么解题的，请NN指点~~~~~~

1，A的emitting应该是伴随状语，按句意看
2，我个人觉得，and also一般不能这样用。要把also去了。一般在GMAT里这种并列句型里，they应该省略。还有fewer的问题
不过我特别想不明白，为什么A选项里也有个fewer，是指其他气体的种类少吗？

我记得有看到一个总结说，little后面名词必须是单数，few的话后面名词必须是复数形式，表示可数。C中我本来以为可以把carbon dioxide和gases堆到一块.......
我还是纠结as well as 那个，带出来的emitting既没有和主句谓语形式平行，也没有结构作用，实在有点多余，因为似乎emitting表伴随已经有as well as的味道了
好晕啊。。。
