Not NN.


"was marked by using" in E is wonrg, bcoz E seems to say the subject of the sentence, "industrial Revolution" is/was using ... but IR cannot use.

"make sth possible" and "make possible sth" both are grammatical. The second one is more proper to use when sth is too long.


"by the use of" emphasizes the means of doing sth not the action.

Do agree with ppbb.

"by the use of" stresses the result of doing sth.

"by using" stresses the action.

LZM''s book mentions the distinction of the noun and gerund.
