C cant be the answer...

It has to be B..

the idiom s to be ..."not only...but also"..

A uses "create" and "gave"- two different tenses in the same sentence...


imo:B

First the OA of the question mentioned by Neha is Wrong

Just google the question and you will find all possible OAs..
:lol:


Out of all the OAs... I found OA D as the best ...

stacy quotes:
The correct idiom is "not only... but also." I haven't seen a CAT question in which they break this rule.

Having said that..
lets start the eliminations:

A: out ( Not only but it...wrong idiom )
B Contender
C: awkward...participle phrase not required....not parallel
D: Contender
E: out...not only but also


Now why B is out:

Ronnie not only plays but also studies. Correct

not only ronnie plays but he also studies Correct

not only ronnie plays but also studies: Not structurally parallel
subject + verb.....

So B out

left is D

THE BEST OA
:lol:

not only..,... but also is the correct usage

A) it is wrong usage
B)OA
C)... but also ( not only is missing) and creating usage is wrong
D)not only is missing
E) not only ... but it (also is missing )

Vishu

C cant the be the OA
