Once again, thanks for your overwhelming response.

Its great to see that you are bringing out the concerns about the questions that you got incorrect. The intelligent discussion that follows after significantly aids in the learning process.

Since the quiz is currently active, I will not discuss the answer to this question on the forum, but at this time, I can tell you this much that the question is correct as posted. I will provide the answer explanation after I take the quiz offline, which is probably in another 5 hours.

Hello friends,

Can somebody explain me the below two? (I got the below 2 wrong)







[click on the images to magnify]

OA given is :

"Oracle is more adept than SAP at acquiring companies with distinct product line and non overlapping customers and integrating their management"

I think its better to write

"Oracle is more adept than SAP at acquiring companies with distinct product line, non overlapping customers and integrated management"

integrated and not integrating

with distinct product line .........with non-overlapping customers ........with integrated management

everything should be parallel.

What do you think?

5) the resent discovery of fossils of giant plankton feeders led scientists to believe of an era that was dominated by Leedsichthys who have now evolved into basking sharks.


the above is given as OA,

I marked the below one.

whats the difference "who are now evolved" and "who have now evolved" ....which one's sounds better?

@hrishi19884 - The three items are NOT parallel. ONLY the first two items, distinct product line and non overlapping customers, are parallel. I would prefer 'as well as' before 'integrating their management' though!
