og-235 The best answer, B, uses the logical and grammatically correct construction. Spanning more than fifty years, Friedrich Miiller’s career began... and culminated. Note that the noun phrase appearing after the comma is modified by Spanning and serves as the subject of began and culminated. Choice A produces an illogical statement by placing Friedrich Miiller in this subject position. Choice C corrects this error but produces an unidiomatic construction by using apprenticeship of being instead of apprenticeship as. Choice D repeats both this error and the subject error of A. D and E needlessly change the simple past tense began to the past perfect had begun and the present perfect has begun, respectively, and E uses apprenticeship of, which is unidiomatic in this context.

Spanning more than fifty years时间的跨度，这里只能指人的职业时间长短，修饰人显然不合适。
