prep 一道语法，有关分词修饰的问题

qinyitian

一直搞不太清楚那种有逗号分隔的分词放在句尾是表伴随还是修饰前面紧挨着的名词，一直是根据句子意思判断的，大家看这道题，答案是C，那么circling是修饰Jupiter还是修饰“most of them”抑或修饰planet？我个人倾向于跳跃修饰most of them。请大家指点！

133. (31602-!-item-!-188;#058&004586)

In the past several years, astronomers have detected more than 80 massive planets, most of them as large or larger than Jupiter, which circle other stars.

(A) most of them as large or larger than Jupiter, which circle

(B) most of them as large or larger than Jupiter and circling

(C) most of them at least as large as Jupiter, circling

(D) mostly at least as large as Jupiter, which circle

(E) mostly as large or larger than Jupiter, circling

windfalls

我觉得是massive planets
不过Most of them 也是行星啊
circling就是修饰行星的吧
Jupiter意思都不对啦

intersun

跳过插入语修饰前面

那就是要根据意思判断到底是修饰哪个名词或者是伴随喽？那这样会不会认为是歧义呢？
