Even though it was not illegal for the bank to share its customers' personal and financial information
with an outside marketing company in return for a commission on sales, the state's attorney general
accused the bank of engaging in deceptive business practices by failing to honor its promise to its
customers to keep records private.

(A) by failing to honor its promise to its customers to keep
(B) by its failure of honoring its promise to its customers to keep
(C) in its failing to honor its promise to its customers of keeping
(D) because of its failure in honoring its promise to its customers in keeping
(E) because of its failure to honor its promise to its customers of keeping
答案是A，我觉得这里有个问题，这里用by failing to honor的话这个动作的发出者可以是the state's attorney general也可以是bank，所以不是会产生歧义吗？而且一般的句子说sb do sth by doing sth的话，这里的by不都是用来修饰主语的吗，貌似没看到过修饰宾语的，是不是如果在by doing前加个逗号就是修饰主语了，如果没有加逗号就是修饰宾语了，就和现在分词的用法差不多呢？
