(B) merging the nuclei of atoms instead of splitting them apart, like nuclear reactors
(C) merging the nuclei of atoms rather than splitting them apart, as nuclear reactors do
(D) and merges the nuclei of atoms but does not split them apart, as is done in unclear reactors
(E) and merges the nuclei of atoms, unlike atomic reactors that split them apart
选e,我选了b,谁能告诉我怎么做?

1、先确定是分词还是谓语动词并列。merging从语法上看，修饰的是主句的主语Nuclear fusion ，逻辑上是不通的，其应该是the force 的动作，所以A、B、C排除。

2、D是极WORDY的一种表达方式

如果是分词的话,就一定是修饰主句的主语吗?

B更严重的问题在于：
like nuclear reactors
象nuclear reactors一样做什么呢？当然是：
is the force that powers the Sun, the stars, and hydrogen bombs, merging the nuclei of atoms instead of splitting them apart,
与句意正好相反。

好佩服gemj哥哥,可不可以再告诉我分词短语只可以修饰主句中的主语吗?

gemj

可以做状语（估计是你说的“修饰主句中的主语”吧），也可作定、表、补。
下面是一个作定语的例子：
A young man writing novels came to speak to us yesterday.

正这是ETS惯用的技俩啊.我也犯错了.
