这道题选A，CHASEDREAM2008语法笔记里，编号190（附件已上传便于牛牛参考），对D选项的解释有些疑惑，除去后面all和为划线的句子its有冲突外，我还想知道为什么它的解释是：由于前面主句是主系表结构，with并不是引导独立主格这句话。主句哪里是主系表结构了？Each had a written charter.....根本就是主谓宾啊。。。求解难道我理解句子有错？
而且解释还说with的存在使得some并不是指代colonies,而是colonies所相关的东西，为什么会有指代其他东西的嫌疑？with已经紧紧跟在被修饰词后了还会有这样的歧义吗？
(e) is wrong for a couple of reasons.
* first of all, "with" wrongly suggests that "some" refers not to the colonies themselves but to something that the colonies came with. to suggest that you're referring to the colonies themselves (which you are), you need modifiers of the type used in the correct answer (a).
* "while" MUST be used with a clause or __ing phrase. it can't be used with a construction that doesn't contain any sort of verb form (such as this one, which is just noun + prepositional phrase).
