Memery

句子结构：With…, the US acquired…, doubling… and bringing…
With介词短语做方式状语，主语是the United States，谓语是acquired，并列的现在分词结构doubling
and bringing作伴随状语修饰主句。

考点：指代一致、逻辑表达
1)     指代一致，which只能指代前面出现过的名词而不能指代整个句子，which指代前面句子表达的意
思常作为伴随状语的混淆选项出现。
2)     逻辑表达，修饰同一对象的成分必须用连词连接使其并列，否则会产生修饰歧义。

(A) which没有指代对象，and that没有并列对象。
(B) and it brought在语法上应该与主句the United States acquired并列，it没有合理的指代对象。
(C)    正确，with在此处的意思是because of sth and as it happens, as a result of。
(D) bringing和doubling并列作伴随状语修饰主句，应该用and连接，否则bringing…的修饰对象有歧
义。
(E) it没有指代对象；acquire与bought同时用，表达不简洁。

说得真好。。。。with在句首应该是表示原因状语，修饰前面的整个主句。。。。
