In the Louisiana Purchase of 1803, the United States acquired 828,000 square miles for about four cents an acre, which more than doubled the country's size and that brought its western border within reach of the Pacific Ocean.

 

(A) In the Louisiana Purchase of 1803, the United States acquired 828,000 square miles for about four cents an acre, which more than doubled the country's size and that brought

(B) For about four cents an acre the United States acquired, in the Louisiana Purchase of 1803, 828,000 square miles, more than doubling the country's size and it brought

(C) With the Louisiana Purchase in 1803, the United States acquired 828,000 square miles for about four cents an acre, more than doubling its size and bringing

(D) The United States, in the Louisiana Purchase of 1803, for about four cents an acre, acquired 828,000 square miles, more than doubling the country's size, bringing

(E) Acquiring 828,000 square miles in the Louisiana Purchase of 1803, the United States bought it for about four cents an acre, more than doubling the country's size and bringing

正确答案是C，我想问一下D选项的doubling和bringing之间的and，我觉得bringing应该修饰整句话，他们不是并列关系，谢谢大家。

D还有其他错误，for about four。。。修饰828000 aquare，放在主语和谓语之间，成了修饰主语了。

doubling和bringing都是作伴随状语的，获得那么多土地的同时，国家面积翻倍，领土到达太平洋。这两个是并列的。

in the Louisiana Purchase of 1803能修饰US吗？我觉得不好吧
