a. same
b. a similar defiance which welcomed
c. a similar defiance to what welcomed
d. a defiance similar to that which welcomed
e. the same defiance welcoming
the answer's D. I kind of understand why D is correct, but I don't understand why A is grammatically incorrect. I got this question from one of our downloadable notes and I still wasn't clear from the explanation.
