(A) by using the company’s earnings and to profit
(B) by using the companies’ earnings and by profiting
(C) using the companies’ earnings and profiting
(D) with the company’s earnings, profiting
(E) with the companies’ earnings and to profit
a 和 e 我拿不准。答案是e.a为何不对？

BY DOING表示通过什么行为。WITH STH 表示使用什么。
这样看来BY USING=WITH
从意思上看。A更象说“通过对EARNINGS的动用来PAY OFF。E则表示”用EARNINGS来PAY OFF“ 这样E更MAKE SENSE

BTW，我一开始也差点选了A
