(C) Just as English and Italian have elaborate rules for forming

(D) As with English and Italian, both having elaborate rules to form

答案是C，为什么不从for doing表示目的来排除它？

1)for doing 在修饰动词时不如to do；所以错，即for doing不能表示动作的目的。

但是以下几种情况for doing 是对的。

1)for doing修饰名词，如the deadline for appling MBA,申请MBA的最后日期。即可以表示名词的目的/意图/功能。本题是此种用法。

2）for doning还可以表原因，如blame sb for doing sth


对于本题的解答： so 是连词，应该连接两个句子。ABDE选项的结构全部是： 介词短语，连词+主句，全部错误。所以即使不知道just as... so...的搭配，还是可以做对题目。
