Hi rahul

This question is real tough
I used the POE and A does not seem to connect to the whole sentence
B does not have mention of who is doing this
C seems awkward
D again has no mention for who is doing it
E seems somewhat parallel and as such i am not able to point any errors in it

I might be wrong
Whats the OA?
The sweat of hard work is not to be displayed. It is much more graceful to appear favored by the gods

Thanks guys...OA is E, but have to admit that it is a tough question.
I was worried about possessive pronouns. Got it right now, and encountered one in wimbledon.org :)

You have to hope that Roger Federer’s opponents don’t decide that the perfect piece of pre-match preparation is a quick glance at his career statistics...sweet!!
