请：OG 紫皮verbal review 一道关于动词不定式的题

Judge Bonham denied a motion（ to allow members of the jury to go home at the end of each day instead of to confine them to) a hotel.（紫皮300页99题, 括号部分为划线部分）

A. to allow members of the jury to go home at the end of each day instead of

B. that would have allowed members of the jury to go home at the end of each day instead of confined to

C. under which members of the jury are allowed to go home at the end of each day instead of confining them in

D. that would allow members of the jury to go home at the end of each day rather than confinement in

E. to allow members of the jury to go home at the end of each day rather than be confined to

正确的答案是E。OG的解释是：be confined to uses the infinitive form just as to go home does; the to before be confined is understood and does not need to be repeated. The x rather than y construction is appropriately used in this sentence.

这道题我选了A。后来仔细一看用instead of和rather than的语法点可以排除A。但分析正确句子的结构又让我纠结了好久，求哪位牛牛来指点迷津：

Judge Bonham denied a motion to allow members of the jury to go home at the end of each day rather than be confined to a hotel.

这里motion后面的to allow...是做定语修饰motion呢，还是做denied的目的状语？
