12. Rising inventories, when unaccompanied correspondingly by increases in sales, can lead to production cutbacks that would hamper economic growth.
(A) when unaccompanied correspondingly by increases in sales, can lead
(B) when not accompanied by corresponding increases in sales, possibly leads
(C) when they were unaccompanied by corresponding sales increases, can lead
(D) if not accompanied by correspondingly increased sales, possibly leads
(E) if not accompanied by corresponding increases in sales, can lead
OA: (E) However, I cannot understand why (A) is incorrect. Ans (A) uses "Correspondingly", an adverb, to modify "increases", a verb, should be correct. Meanwhile, Ans (E) uses "Corresponding", an adjective, to modify "increases", a verb, should be incorrect.
Anybody can help? Thanks.
