OG12 #106 〜Prep08 #210 关于which跳跃指代问题

首先谢谢CD的前辈们，小女子最近问题好多，还请大家待见啦〜

贴题，OG12 #106
Marconi's conception of the radio was as a substitute for the telephone, a tool for private conversation: instead, it is precisely the opposite, a tool for communicating with a large, public audience.

(A) Marconi's conception of the radio was as a substitute for the telephone, a tool for private conversation; instead, it is
(B) Marconi conceived of the radio as a substitute for the telephone, a tool for private conversation, but which is
(C) Marconi conceived of the radio as a tool for private conversation that could substitute for the telephone; instead, it has become
(D) Marconi conceived of the radio to be a tool for private conversation, a substitute for the telephone, which has become
(E) Marconi conceived of the radio to be a substitute for the telephone, a tool for private conversation, other than what it is,

答案no doubt ，看D。
千行中是这么解释的：
D选项的which只能修饰telephone(Ron)：
from what we've seen - if you have "which" following "noun1 + preposition + noun2", then "which" can refer to noun1 only if noun2 is grammatically ineligible. otherwise it automatically refers to noun2.

但是Prep08语法笔记 #210，讲到which跳跃修饰时说：
which在两种情况下可跳跃修饰。
1，A of B，which...修饰A
2，插入语

我的疑问：本题D中 a substitute for the telephone：
1，是插入语吗？若是，为何不可跳跃修饰？
2，若不是插入语，算作同位语，那怎么样才算插入语呢？


谢谢大牛们〜open to all discussion！

1.appositive；appositive遵循touch rule，最好紧邻修饰；
2.  插入语和同位语是两个概念；
插入语：当一个词、短语或从句用在句中，与句子其他成分没有语法上的关系时，它就叫独立成分，独立成分分为惊叹语、呼语和插入语。
而同位语是modifier的一种，修饰句子里的各种成分
