是不是D中的on hearing 可以往前修饰，也可以往后修饰，而A中不存在这个歧异

我看完这题也选的D。。。
而且我觉得你解释的对！

d缺乏主语吧好像。。

xuganwilliam

A中有but，是连词，所以在这里是连接的两个句子，on hearing介词短语修饰后面句子中的主语，he，完全没有问题

D中无连词，结构混乱，on hearing位置上修饰telescope，逻辑上修饰主语 家里虐，所以修饰混乱，而且D没有主语啊亲。。

D中后面的quickly直接修饰了instrument，所以不对。所以B,D排除。
C中的even though 是从属结构，句子要有主句。on hearing，XX, that如果做主句，明显从属结构无联系（参考大全987中的78题，although的用法）
E中being错。
我一开始以为A中的he后面是run on，但是有but，说明是两个句子，on hearing 那段应该是状语吧
