24. Herself the mother of seven children, Mrs. New- land discusses the care of infants in very helpful ways.
(A) Herself
(B) Herself being
(C) In that she is herself
(D) Because of being herself
(E) Being herself

Definitely not D it changes the meaning and makes a cause and effect issue. C is redundant In that she is herself is unnecessary verbage.E is worded poorly(I know not agood reason) and doesnt really make sense. Im going with A its a descriptive phrase describing Mrs. Newland. This one is tough, I think. Any thoughts

I would go for A.

'Herself' tends to keep the sentence terse and concise.
