Unlike leaf cutters and most other ants, whose nests are situated underground or in pieces of wood, raider ants make a portable nest by entwining their long legs to form "curtains" of ants that hang from logs or boulders, providing protection for the queen and the colony larvar and pupae. (正解，选项C）

选项D是： leaf cutters and most other ants in having nests

D的解释上面说 the prepositional phrase in having nests suggests that it is raider ants, not leaf cutters and most other ants, that have nests situated underground or in piece sof wood. 不明白。

哪位大神可以解释一下从哪里可以看出来为什么一加in having nests, 变成了形容raider ants么？？

谢谢!!!!

通常修饰语修饰的是紧挨的名词，这里in having紧挨着的就是ants

我当时做这个题也不太懂这个解释。我当时排除D是觉得 in这类介词修饰属于限制性修饰，就感觉变成了“situated underground or in pieces of wood的leaf cutters and most other ants”和raider ants进行对比
