Making a legacy for himself as a President who wanted to have the last word on any decision, the phrase "the bucks stops here" was coined by Harry S. Truman.
(A) the phrase "the bucks stops here" was coined by Harry S. Truman
(B) phrasing "the bucks stops here" was coined by Harry S. Truman
(C) "the bucks stops here" was a phrase coined by Harry S. Truman
(D) Harry S. Truman coined the phrase "the bucks stops here"
(E) Harry S. Truman's phrase "the bucks stops here" was coined
(A) the phrase "the bucks stops here" was coined by Harry S. Truman
(B) phrasing "the bucks stops here" was coined by Harry S. Truman
(C) "the bucks stops here" was a phrase coined by Harry S. Truman
(D) Harry S. Truman coined the phrase "the bucks stops here"
(E) Harry S. Truman's phrase "the bucks stops here" was coined
Official Explanation :
The first part of the sentence describes Truman so the words directly after the comma should be Harry S. Truman, not the phrase.
Therefore, eliminate (A), (B), and (C), which repeat the error.
Choice (D) has Harry S. Truman after the comma, and makes no other errors, so retain this answer choice.
Now look closely at (E) - it's not describing Harry S. Truman but Harry S. Truman's phrase. The phrase did not make legacy for himself as President; Harry S. Truman did, so eliminate (E). The correct answer is (D).
