12) The DP began to assume its modern form during the intense political conflict __ US citizens after the war of 1892.
A. divided
B. that divided
C. that divided it
D. that it divided


I think the correct choice is "A" because :

The DP began to assume (THAT)its modern form during the intense political conflict divided US citizens after the war of 1892.

11) Perhaps even more important than the accuracy and reliability of a m...cal instrument ___.
A. that positioning it is correct
B. is positioned correctly
C. that its correct position
D. is that it be positioned correctly


I also think D is correct choice, but why "be" here ?

A. that positioning it is correct
B. is positioned correctly
C. that its correct position
D. is that it be positioned correctly


For this one, the answer is D because :

First, this one is Inversion of Subject + Be + Complement
Second, it is also a case of Present Subjunctive with some adjs such as : important, necessary,...

12) The DP began to assume its modern form during the intense political conflict __ US citizens after the war of 1892.
A. divided
B. that divided
C. that divided it
D. that it divided


Hi, Silence
For this one, B is the correct answer.

Because if A is right, "its modern form" must be the subject of the verb "devided". And it makes no sense.

Actually, "the intense political conflict " is the subject of the verb "devided". You also need to consider a little bit about the meaning of a sentence.
