Guys help me out. Refer the following SC -
13. Japan received huge sums of capital from the United States after the Second World War, using it to help build a modern industrial system.
(A) Japan received huge sums of capital from the United States after the Second World War, using it to help build
(B) Japan received huge sums of capital from the United States after the Second World War and used it to help in building
(C)Japan used the huge sums of capital it received from the United States after the Second World War to help build
(D) Japan’s huge sums of capital received from the United States after the Second World War were used to help it in building
(E) Receiving huge sums of capital from the United States after the Second World War, Japan used it to help build
And OA is C
But according to me, it should be B. If I am wrong, please let me know where my error is?
Correct me If I am wrong

In A the tense not proper...received and using..so A is out
in B and E - what does it refer to??? is it the huge sums of money?? if yes then shldn't it be them???...so B & E are out
In D - what does it refer to?? dont think Japan as the reference coz we have only the sums of money as the subject...so D is out

The one left out is C and it has everything in place...
Trying hard!!!
