I am also curious about "doing...." and "who did....", see the following sc:
Washington Irving's German-influenced stories were profoundly moving to
Americans, (knowing more than most) Britons what it was to feel the trauma of rapid change, and Americans found in the lazy Rip a model for making a sucess of failure.
B. who knew more then most
C. knowing more then most
D. most who knew more about what
E. who knew more than most
可能是因为：shunning 会表示一种持续的动作，所以没有who shunned来的准确。另外，soon became ill 读起来比较顺。作者: princess 时间: 2002-10-7 00:56
关于现在分词做定语修饰名词：
定语性质的现在分词短语只能用来叙述和主要动词差不多同时发生的动作,如果两个动词表示的动作在时间上有先后，一般不能用分词
eg: Can you see the girl dancing with your brother?
I want to talk to the person who broke the cup.
Tongxun, the pic you attached as ur image is genuinely cute!
My grandma on my father side passed away last night. That is Merphew's Law ( the spelling is not correct!)The law indicates that if something goes wrong, other things will follow to worsen the situation. Due to the scheduled test date, I cannot leave BJ for her funeral, which I feel regretful for the entire morning.My grandma on my mother side passed away last year and I did not come back to visit her in the last minute because of the shoooooot CPA exams!
Genuinely wish that all the GMAT participants do their best in their tests!
Free from worries no matter what happens!
DWBH "DON'T WORRY. BE HAPPY" the words in the LONG VACATION, a Japenese TV series,may be helpful in tough situation.

(C) while the English priests, who shunned the odiferous herb, soon became ill
when major Verb (became) is in past tense, we shouldn't use V+ing to express it.
We may use "Having shunned the ... ", or "who shunned the ..." to complete the sentence.
Same reason for the second question above.
