C 中的just 语气强加，died用的不恰当吧。E是应该将did 改成是was吧

这道题是不是选C呢？
A 中的and 后面的they多余
B,D中的only armed,only修饰语位置改变了
E中的结构成了主语，逗号，谓语了，所以错误！
C中意思是BB开始从事什么工作，伴随状语是traveling和armed，这里用法比较特殊，中间的and 省略掉了

1). C is not parallel compared with the main clause, and let concise compared with Like..
2). "In 1905" put at the begining to modify the whole sentence.  travel is occurring at the time of beginning so that we put -ing rather than -ed.  Also, armed is modifed with persons.
3). no way to use making.... as it is not capbable of delivering the message logically.
4). context use  call sth. for sth.  and advance "for sth.".  include occured at a different time of call, so that to use -ed rather than -ing.  The second part after and have the same parallet structure as the former part: call for sth. sth.
