A sentence on page 78 of the Manhattan SC is as follows:
The police found the murder weapon, making the prosecutor's job much easier.
Initially I thought that they modifying phrase "making the prosecutor's job much easier" modifies the noun "police". However, if so, shouldn't the modifier and the noun being modified touch, as follows:
The police, making the prosecutor's job much easier, found the murder weapon.
The only way I can reconcile this is by assuming that the modifier "making the prosecutor's ..." doesn't modify police, but rather modifies the action of find the murder weapon, making the modifier an adverbial modifier (which doesn't have to touch the verb being modified) rather than a noun modifier. Can I please confirm this?
BTW, does anyone know if the questions in the OG11 are the same as the OG Verbal Guide? I have the OG Verbal Guide, but don't want to shell out for the OG11 if the verbal questions are simply repeated.
Thanks in advance.
