请教一道语法问题!

The carbon-are lamp, a (very bright) electric lamp used for spotlights, (consists of) two carbon  electrodes (with) a high-current are passing between (it).

答案明显是D,但是我觉得(with) a high-current are passing between (it).这个用法不是很明白,不知哪位朋友可以帮忙讲解一下.

我怎么觉得答案是WITH呀? IT 指代LAMP,没错呀, BETWEEN 后面不一定要用复数名词的.
CONSISTS OF 与WITH 后面的ARE 为并列谓语,不能用WITH 连接.从题意来说也应该是WITH 改AND.

谢谢楼上的朋友,但我认为是between two carbon  electrodes吧
我只是奇怪 with a high-current are passing between (it). 中的are passing 是做什么成分呢?
省略了定语从句的which? 我觉得应该which are一同省略吧!

我想应该是it.
这句话 Tea.......................it............................. 用drink填空
结果是 Tea doesn't drink it is drunk.

如果是这样的话,ARE应该改为单数IS吧? 我也觉得这句的结构很奇怪,如果are passing是定语从句的话,它修饰谁呢?不可能是前面的current,因为其谓语动词是复数.
