133. As part of their therapy, young polio victims learning to live with their disabilities were helped to practice falling during the 1950s, so that they could learn to fall without being hurt.

(A) As part of their therapy, young polio victims learning to live with their disabilities were helped to practice falling during the 1950s
(B) As part of their therapy, young polio victims learning to live during the 1950s with their disabilities were helped to practice falling
(C) Young polio victims learning to live during the 1950s with their disabilities were helped to practice falling as part of their therapy
(D) Young polio victims learning to live with their disabilities were helped to practice falling during the 1950s as part of their therapy
(E) During the 1950s, as part of their therapy, young polio victims learning to live with their disabilities were helped to practice falling

[spoiler]The answer is E: which is definitely the best choice here, but there is one problem i have in such sentences which begin with words like during etc....like E "During the 1950s, as part of their therapy,..... here pronoun " their does not have antecedent?? is this correct & when is it correct to have pronoun without antecedent?[/spoiler]

As long as there is a noun that clearly identifies the pronoun..

In this case "their" refers to noun "young polio victims".

Ex
In his graduation, Mr Brown thanked god...

Can any one tell me why is D wrong here.

Thanks

Thanks raama!
Regarding (D) Young polio victims learning to live with their disabilities were helped to practice falling during the 1950s as part of their therapy


practice falling during the 1950s
i understand that it sounds as if the victims were helped to practice falling in 1950's: that the therapy has falling practice during these years while other practices in other years.
