(D)

(E)
                    Pledging a $100 million investment in the search for extraterrestrial intelligence five centuries after Europeans arrived in the New World, on Columbus Day 1992, the initiation of Project SETI took place.

答案是C，请问A错是因为Initiated发生在on Columbus Day 1992，而five centuries after Europeans arrived in the New World 是修饰on Columbus Day 1992的，所以语序上A会有歧义，C比较好对吗？

应该是吧，因为这里有两个动词：initiate 和 arrive，所以介词修饰要紧跟所修饰的动词

C用中间逗号部分做同位语，用来修饰on C Day 1992，即使去掉同位语，句子的意思也不会改变

A的话会读出两种不同的意思，一种是在1992年C day这天欧洲人到达新世界后的五个世纪，项目Initiated；另一种是C要表达的意思。

不知道这么说对不对，请NN指正，谢谢！

句子意思单一性，Ｃ优选
