(A) fund, with the intention to sustain the state’s economy after the exhaustion of its oil reserves

(B) fund, the intention of which is to sustain the state’s economy after they have exhausted their oil reserves

(C) fund intended to sustain the state’s economy after oil reserves are exhausted

(D) fund intended to sustain the state’s economy after exhausting its oil reserves（C）

(E) fund that they intend to sustain the state’s economy after oil reserves are exhausted

D中的after后怎么能理解成fund呢?

(D) fund intended to sustain the state’s economy after exhausting its oil reserves其中after exhausting its oil reserves是修饰intended to sustain the state’s economy的，而intended to sustain the state’s economy是修饰fund,其逻辑主语是是资金。因此，after exhausting its oil reserves得逻辑主语也是资金。

这是英文中的“就近修饰”产生的岐义。D项after之后没有主语，所以就近找的话，就是fund做主语了，这样一来的话，句意明显不对。所以D错。
