In 19th century Europe, a renewed interest in Middle Eastern architecture was kindled not only by increased trade but also by increased tourism and improved diplomatic relations.

A. not only by increased trade but also by
B. by not only increased trade but also by
C. not only by increased trade but also
D. not only by increased trade but
E. by increased trade and also by

The correct answer is: A. I put down C at first so I dont understand why that is wrong..

This is due to parallelism. Remember, the idiom is not only X but also Y, where X and Y MUST be parallel.,

in A, we have not only by X, but also by Y This is actually parallel. In C, the omission of "by" breaks the sentence structure by spoiling its parallelism. "by X" is juxtaposed with "Y" instead of "by Y".

Hope that helped!
