D. due to the economy's continued strength, analysts have been predicting for weeks that the target
E. due to the fact of the economy's continued strength, analysts predicted for weeks that the target will
Correct answer is A, but i selected D. Can you tell me why is D incorrect?

Hi Gmat Ninja,
Recent interdisciplinary studies advance the argument that emotions, including those deemed personal or private is a social phenomenon, though one inseparable from bodily response.
(A) private is a social phenomenon, though one inseparable
(B) private, are social phenomena that are inseparable
(C) private are a social phenomenon but are not those inseparable
(D) private—are social phenomena but not separable
(E) also as private emotions, are social phenomena not inseparable
I understand why all other options are incorrect , but i am curious to know in option B, correct option, how that is able to refer to emotions ?

Hi Ninja,
Can a prepositional phrase be both Noun and Adverbial Modifier?
Sentence: She placed the cat ON THE COUCH
I'm studying from Manhattan GMAT SC book. It says
1) If the modifier answers a question about the noun, it's a noun modifier.
2) If the modifier answers a question about the action, it's an adverbial modifier.
The modifier "ON THE COUCH" answers two questions.
1) Where is the cat? ON THE COUCH (Noun modifier)
2) Where did she place the cat? ON THE COUCH (Adverbial Modifier)
Is it possible for a propositional phrase to be both? Or my understanding of them is wrong? Please clarify. Thanks a lot.
