There is no such thing as the “best amongst the worst” in GMAT Sentence Correction. There is always a choice that is clear and correct. It may not be the only way to write the sentence, it may not be the way you would write the sentence, but the correct answer will be grammatical and unambiguous.

There is nothing ungrammatical, ambiguous, or awkward about the following sentence:

So dogged were Frances Perkins’ investigations of the garment industry, so persistent her lobbying for wage and hour reform, that Alfred E. Smith and Franklin D. Roosevelt recruited Perkins to work within the government, rather than as a social worker.

The part of the sentence between the first two commas (“so persistent her lobbying for wage and hour reform”) is an absolute phrase, an elaboration on the words “so dogged Frances Perkins’ investigation of the garment industry”, placed in apposition.

Here is the same information expressed first more straightforwardly, then step by step transformed into choice E:

Frances Perkins’ investigations of the garment industry were so dogged, and her lobbying for wage and hour reform were so persistent, that Alfred E. Smith and Franklin D. Roosevelt...

Frances Perkins’ investigations of the garment industry were so dogged, her lobbying for wage and hour reform so persistent, that Alfred E. Smith and Franklin D. Roosevelt...

So dogged were Frances Perkins’ investigations of the garment industry, so persistent her lobbying for wage and hour reform, that Alfred E. Smith and Franklin D. Roosevelt...

那么这句话表明so persistent her lobbying for wage and hour reform是前一句的同位语？？？
