PREP 173
【Analyzing campaign expenditures, the media has had as a focus】 the high costs and low ethics of campaign finance, but they have generally overlooked the cost of actually administering elections, which includes facilities, transport, printing, staffing, and technology.
A.    Analyzing campaign expenditures, the media has had as a focus
B.    Analyses of campaign expenditures by the media has been focused on
C.    In analyzing campaign expenditures, the media have focused on
D.    Media analyses of campaign expenditures have had as a focus     
E.    In their analysis of campaign expenditures, the media has been focusing on

疑问点Ａ　关于A项的解释是(A)    analyzing表示同时发生，与主句的has had表示现时已经完结不一致 那么C项的这个结构不会不也是有问题的 因为即使加个介词In,这里的analyzing 也是现在分词，那么这个分词怎么跟后面的完成时搭配？？

疑问点Ｂ　在下面这个题里　正确答案却是V+ing 分词，主句的结构是完成时，这点跟上题的A选项有矛盾

个人想法 请求指正。如果说按照第一题A选项的解释：不能用现在分词修饰完成时，那么第二个题就没有正确答案。同时第一个题的C项也是有问题的
跪求斑竹 请给予解释 谢谢

后面的完成时搭配？？

in analyzing不是现在分词，而是in doing sth，是个状语。
试着把它想象成比如 in 1988 这样的时间状语短语，这样就好理解了

对 我也考虑过这个想法。但是在看PREP08笔记的时候，里面确实提到这种介词+ing 至于句首，是现在分词。我不知道这个说法是不是误导，或者说不完全对。因为在第一个题里面，A和C 选项里analysing 如果都是现在分词 这个题就没办法选了。
第二个问题还是这个 现在分词作伴随状语到底能不能修饰现在完成时，因为第二个题的答案是B，即是说明可以修饰的。但是按照第一个题和白勇书上的说法，是不可以的。请指正下

这么大的一个错误我也给忽略了，下一版马上改正，多谢guoqi发现！

“因为即使加个介词In,这里的analyzing 也是现在分词”
同意analyzing也是现在分词。
