Because there are provisions of the new maritime code that provide that even tiny islets can be the basis for claims to the fisheries and oil fields of large sea areas, they have already stimulated international disputes over uninhabited islands.

A. Because there are provisions of the new maritime code that provide that even tiny islets can be the basis for claims to the fisheries and oil fields of large sea areas, they have already stimulated

B. Because the new maritime code provides that even tiny islets can be the basis for claims to the fisheries and oil fields of large sea areas, it has already stimulated

C. Even tiny islets can be the basis for claims to the fisheries and oil fields of large sea areas under provisions of the new maritime code, already stimulating

D. Because even tiny islets can be the basis for claims to the fisheries and oil fields of large sea areas under provisions of the new maritime code, this has already stimulated

E. Because even tiny islets can be the basis for claims to the fisheries and oil fields of large sea areas under provisions of the new maritime code, which is already stimulating

答案是B，怎么排除C呢，这句话到底是表达什么，claim在这里是什么意思啊

C选项中,"逗号+already stimulating"在这里的逻辑主语不清楚，是 new maritime code还是主句主语 tiny islets。一般情况下，"逗号+doing动名词短语"有2种情况(1)做伴随(2)表结果。那么这里的逻辑主语应该是tiny islets=tiny islets already stimulating,那就是逻辑错误。
另外under provisions of the new maritime code是用来修饰the fisheries and oil fields of large sea areas中的中心词the fisheries and oil fields还是large sea areas呢？修饰词不清楚。
