一道关于分词修饰的SC题求解！

Sxxxxxu

Unable to build nests or care for their young, a female cowbird lays up to 40 eggs a year in the nests of other birds, including warblers, vireos, flycatchers, and thrushes.

• Aa female cowbird lays up to 40 eggs a year in the nests of other birds, including
• Ba female cowbird will use the nests of other birds to lay up to 40 eggs a year, including those of
• Cfemale cowbirds use the nests of other birds to lay up to 40 eggs a year, including those of
• Dfemale cowbirds lay up to 40 eggs a year in the nests of other birds, including
• Eup to 40 eggs a year are laid by female cowbirds in the nests of other birds, including
• 这道题不难，但是我就是在including的时候产生了疑问，including属于 comma +ing这样的形式，曼哈顿说这样的形式属于adverbial modifier 修饰普通名词以外的成分，那到底是修饰整个clause还是什么还是说都可以修饰？这道题的including后面修饰的是nests of other birds 那不是相当于是修饰nests了吗？还有og的解释including those of 时说如果这样的结构会错修饰成那些eggs（下了不同品种的蛋） 这个我也不懂为什么 为什么这样的结构就会那样理解 求大神为小白解答谢谢！！！！！

谢谢你如此精益求精
我当初做这题就想 including warblers,... 那前面也应该birds ..的确是想不通 ,including 的用法

高手在人间啊 。 终于看到有人明白咋回事了 ，分享给你

Including 不是 ,Ving  而是介词 including

哈哈哈哈哈哈哈

剑桥字典上最好解释

including
preposition UK ​  /ɪnˈkluː.dɪŋ/ US ​  /ɪnˈkluː.dɪŋ/
​
used for saying that a person or thing is part of a particular group or amount:
Eight people, including two children, were injured in the explosion.
Including Christmas Day and Boxing Day, I've got a week off work.

感谢解答！所以 是不是可以理解为 如果是including those of 的话这里的including就不是介词而是分词了会修饰前面的eggs in 巴拉巴拉 而不是other birds所以错误

我在gmatclub上看到很多美国人都搞不清楚，大家都在纠结,Ving的用法，都觉得在这里一点都不符合逻辑 ..甚至一些专家，大虾被忽悠了...直到有人指出including是介词 ，众人才恍然大悟
