prep1-81 修饰问题

81.

In the major cities of industrialized countries at the end of the nineteenth century, important public
places such as theaters, restaurants, shops, and banks had installed electric lighting, but electricity
was in less than one percent of homes, where lighting was still provided mainly by candles or gas.

(A) electricity was in less than one percent of homes, where lighting was still
(B) electricity was in less than one percent of homes and lighting still
(C) there were less than one percent of homes with electricity, where lighting was still being
(D) there was less than one percent of homes that had electricity, having lighting that was still
(E) less than one percent of homes had electricity, where lighting had still been
笔记说D中 having…    修饰对象不清楚。但我认为having lighting ......在这里可以看作结果状语修饰前半句话，实在看不出having lighting ......这部分有什么错误，求牛牛指点。

现在分词后置，要么前句主语是他的逻辑主语，要么修饰整个前句
在D中，there be句型肯定不是第一种情况，但having lighting也不是修饰前句；所以表达不正确

谢谢楼上热心回复哈～～～
但还是有点疑问，个人认为there was less than one percent of homes that had electricity就造成了having lighting that was still provided mainly by candles or gas这个结果，having lighting的确是在修饰前句表达后果吧。

你的意思是：是由于百分之一的家庭使用电，造成的居民普遍还是使用蜡烛和煤气照明？
这个逻辑应该不对吧

呵呵，明白了，谢谢指点～～～～
