(A) with each a product of their
(B) with each as a product of its
(C) each products of their
(D) each a product of
(E) each products of
考察with的修饰
With短语就近修饰styles of cooking,不对,所以AB错(其实也是独立主格的结构)
Each后面是单数,所以选择D

C 比较对象一致,表示了who took和who retired不同的情况
DE which指代有问题,所以选择C

考察修饰
A.which就近修饰acre,不对
B.句子结构杂糅,而且没有主语
C正确,句子结构是:with...,SVO,doing
D不符合修饰的简洁性(主语和谓语离远了)而且bringing应该和前面的doubling平行
E.acquire变成了acquiring,这里的double和bring是acquire的结果,所以double和bring应该是ing形式。而且e中的it指代不清晰。
