第二我认为是因为动词优于动名词！

1. In D, "with no demand..." incorrectly modifies "existing structure"

2. In A, the correct idiom should be "with the intention of "

Thank u for the first question.

But for the second one, with 不是独立主格吗？ so" with " modified the whole sentence rather the the noun before it.

here is another one. I wonder why A is wrong since I have been told that 'that' is superior to "of " in XDF

你的另外2个题答案读起来救很顺口，所以基本不用去想那么多

Alaska regularly deposits some of its profits from the sale of oil into a special fund, with the intention to sustain the state’s economy after the exhaustion of its oil reserves.

(A) fund, with the intention to sustain the state’s economy after the exhaustion of its oil reserves---change to of

(B) fund, the intention of which is to sustain the state’s economy after they have exhausted their oil reserves--after they exhaust their oil reserves or after oil reserves are exhausted

(C) fund intended to sustain the state’s economy after oil reserves are exhausted 

(D) fund intended to sustain the state’s economy after exhausting its oil reserves--迷惑性很大，我觉得用after exhausting the state's oil reserves,其实这个可能有点gmat语法了吧，用its回合前面的那块的its有点重复，另外与the state’s economy不对称

不知道大家如何排除D的？

我感觉第二题,exhausting的逻辑主语是谁,有点搞不清楚.
