Should present metal prices continue their sharp rise, the value of the copper in a penny will soon be greater than the face value of the coin.

a. Should present metal prices continue their sharp rise,
b. If present metal prices are continuing their sharp rise,
c. If present metal prices continue to sharply rise,
d. Continuation of sharply rising metal prices should mean that
e. Metal prices' sharp rise continuing should mean that


really i dont understand why the answer is A and i chose C and i was wrong....
i read the forum because it once discussed in the forums. Manhattan forum said " using "their" here is wrong but still chose A, the other forum said the correct structure is if X then Y. However i recall i was taught " if +S+V, S+V", there is no " then" between two clauses. i dont understand so please reexamplain

C is wrong because of split infinitives -

to sharply rise ---- to + adverb + verb

the correct structure is --- to + verb + adverb...

C would be correct if it were :

If present metal prices continue to rise sharply .

Since you have already identified the error in B,D and E, I am not discussing that.


Hope this helps !!!!

Should is used in two cases- Advising and expressing opinion.

You should go for a walk.- Advice.
I regret my past actions,I should have done this instead of that. - opinion.

A scores over C in this regard.
More so, adverb(+ly) should be after the verb,such as study confidently.

Usage of their is correct in the first clause.The antecedent is Metal prices.
