basically what I said is this: a noun or part of a sentence can be modified by a modifier: one after and one before.
As such in this case suppose that
As a novelist, Selma Lagerlöf turned away from literary realism and wrote romantic stories about
the peasant life and landscape of northern Sweden, in 1909 becoming the first woman and also
the first Swedish writer that won
The two red parts are modifier? can they \(at the same\) time modifie Selma ???
Form me is rare that it can happen, even impossible

Hi ppl great discussion there, I wonder what approach needs to be taken for these kind of questions(completely underlined sentences). I'm sure concentrating on the differences and elimination doesn't stand a chance as we have to read and reread all the sentences before choosing the right answer.
Any advice is appreciated

Hi Aditya,
I understand your concern; recognizing error patterns in such questions could be challenging. Our structural understanding of sentences would be put to test more often in these type of questions. If you are able to recognize the clauses, main subject, main verbs, modifiers, prepositional phrases in the sentence, you will be able to apply your knowledge of known errors to these questions.
Elimination and differences still stand a chance in such questions and probably the best way. The most efficient way to solve an SC question is to prove that a choice is incorrect, and not to prove why this is correct.( For analysis purposes, you must understand why it is correct.)
Hope that helps
Vercules
