麻烦大家看看这个伴随状语指代的对象是否正确！

Ranging from art and science to agriculture, museums truly cover a huge variety of knowledge.

如果按照Manhattan的解释，Ranging.... 应该是修饰museum的，而句子的意思应该是说knowlege ranging from..... 所以这句话应该是错的。

不知道这个理解是否正确呢？求大神解释下啦

从语法看：ranging 现在分词修饰主语museum
从含义看：ranging应该是修饰knowledge
两者矛盾啦

"Ranging..... " modifies "Museums" (note it's not museum but museums which is plural). This sentence means that different museums such as art museums, science museums, and agriculture museums cover a variety of knowledge.

Manhattan is correct that Ranging... modifies "museums" and does not modify knowledge.

P.S. Range of museums can include (art museums, space museums, history museums, train museums, car museums.....etc)
