150. In the mid-1960’s a newly installed radar warning system mistook the rising of the moon as a massive missile attack by the Soviets.

(A) rising of the moon as a massive missile attack by the Soviets

(B) rising of the moon for a massive Soviet missile attack

(C) moon rising to a massive missile attack by the Soviets

(D) moon as it was rising for a massive Soviet missile attack（B）

(E) rise of the moon as a massive Soviet missile attack

I want to know "the rising of the moon" = "the rising moon"

However,in OG52 ,why "the rising cost " is better than "the rising of costs"

Thanks for help!!!

不同习惯表达。

没有the rising of costs这一用法，可能的表达是 the rise in costs.

但没有the rise in moon. 有the rise of moon，但和the rising of moon意思应该有所不同。
