non-underlined portion says "are immature..." hence brussels sprouts is plural. We need 'their'pradeepkaushal9518 wrote:Named for the capital of Belgium, Brussels sprouts, which at its fullest growth scarcely exceeds a large walnut in size, are immature buds shaped like tiny cabbages.

their goes with plural exceed instead of exceeds.
ABC out.
"exceed a walnut's large size" what is exceeding this size?
size should exceed size. this comparison is not clear in D.
E sets up the comparison correctly.
pick E.

@pradeepkaushal9518
One small request..can you please underline the incorrect part when posting? It is helpful especially while solving using the timer. If there is no underlining, we need to spend a few seconds to figure out which part is actually under consideration..
Just a thought!
Cheers!

D creates an illogical comparison between Brussels sprouts and Walnut's size. E makes a clear comparison by comparing the Brussels sprouts and a large walnut and adds "in size" to clarify the attribute being compared..pradeepkaushal9518 wrote:i was stucked between D and E and choosen as D
Hope this helps!!
Cheers!!
