The end of the eighteenth century saw the emergence of prize-stock breeding, with individual bulls and cows receiving awards, fetching unprecedented prices, and excite[S1] d enormous interest whenever they were put on show.
(A) excited
(B) it excited
(C) exciting
(D) would excite（C）
(E) it had excited
Choice C is best. 1The third verb phrase in the series describing bulls and cows should have the same grammatical form as the first two. Only choice C has a present participle (or “-ing” form) that is parallel with the two preceding verbs, receiving and fetching. Instead of the present participle, choices A and B use the past tense (excited), choice D uses an auxiliary verb (would excite), and choice E uses the past perfect tense (had excited). 2Additionally, the incorrect verb tenses in B and E are introduced by a pronoun, it, that lacks a logical noun referent.with引导短语修饰谁？
以下是引用boys在2005-4-13 6:45:00的发言：这里“with +名词（代词）+分词+介词短语” 是独立结构，表示伴随状况，可看成状语，修饰主句。 大致相当于：
The end of the eighteenth century saw the emergence of prize-stock breeding, as individual bulls and cows received awards, fetched unprecedented prices, and excited enormous interest whenever they were put on show.
就是boys 分析的那样
