Ya..You are correct ,Ans is A
I am very confused with the modifiers

According to Italy's top anti-Mafia prosecutor, the ailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town famous because of the “The Godfather” and near to those he most trusted.

Please tell me in this sentence why town famous... is not modifying the ailing mobster but is correctly modifying corleaone.

I chose E in spite of its passive voice.Please explain..Will b grt
help!

The answer could not be E. because of a modifier issue.

According to Italy's top anti-Mafia prosecutor, Corleone, famous because of “The Godfather,” was the town that the ailing mobster came to take refuge in because it was near to those he most trusted

The first part of the sentence is describing a person, Corleone is a name of a town,in this case, it is a mobster should be used.
so the correct answer has to be " According to Italy's top anti-Mafia prosecutor, the ailing mobster"

I hope it is clear

According to Italy's top anti-Mafia prosecutor
According to X
The first part of the sentence can be used to describe either a place or the person,how can one say that According to X is ailing mobster/corleone.
