答案是D,问一下E为什么不对,动名词修饰的应该是the number ,这与D好象没有什么区别呀?

刚好做到这道题目，我乱讲一下：

D中it指代the number of xxx 无歧义

E中in fact与possibly看上去不爽，另外serving动作发出对象不如D明晰

(A) for attracting females rise and fall in accordance with the surrounding temperature, and they can in fact serve

(B) for attracting females rises and falls in accordance with the surrounding temperature, which can in fact serve

(C) in attracting females rise and fall in accordance with the surrounding temperature, in fact possibly serving

(D) to attract females rises and falls in accordance with the surrounding temperature, and it can in fact serve

for和不定式表目的都可以，

A ：they

B：which修饰对象错

C： in attracting 无法表目的

E：possibly serving逻辑上应该是修饰主语的，而这种分词伴随的表达，是修饰整句的

太同意了

E：possibly serving逻辑上应该是修饰主语的，而这种分词伴随的表达，是修饰整句的
---------~ing也可以修饰主语的哦.

现在分词在句末可以做伴随修饰整句，表示由于主句动作造成的结果。也可以是主语发出的动作，从这一点上不能排除E。

请注意SC的一个重要原则是不要轻易改变原句的意思和逻辑关系。

(A) for attracting females rise and fall in accordance with the surrounding temperature, and they can in fact serve  ==》原句是清晰的并列关系。

(D) to attract females rises and falls in accordance with the surrounding temperature, and it can in fact serve  ==》正确选项是清晰的并列关系。

(E) to attract females rises and falls in accordance with the surrounding temperature, in fact possibly serving  ==》改成伴随状语，改变了原句的逻辑关系，错误。
