500. Many psychologists and sociologists now contend that the deliberate and even brutal aggression integral to some forms of competitive athletics increase the likelihood of imitative violence that erupts among crowds of spectators dominated by young adult males.
(A) increase the likelihood of imitative violence that erupts
(B) increase the likelihood that there will be an eruption of imitative violence
(C) increase the likelihood of imitative violence erupting
(D) increases the likelihood for imitative violence to erupt
(E) increases the likelihood that imitative violence will erupt

First, you need “increases” since it refers to “the deliberate and even brutal aggression” (singular) and then you need the preposition “that” and not “for”, that’s is: increases the likelihood that…something will happen

2 questions....


1. noncountable noun + noncountable noun = treat as single? (I forgot how to treat 2 noncountable nouns)

2. liklihood "always" take "that" instead of for or to...

thank you for your help! :D

well, in this case is not a matter of countable, noncountable noum, it is because "deliberate and even brutal aggression" is singular (1 agression)

Please scoot down to my ques ...... experts pls comment

Asking an unasked question on this one:

Between D and E, I am confused. D seems more non committal (violence could erupt it is not necessary that it will erupt) however, I like the 'likelihood that' idiom in E.

Can anyone shed some light on why choose E over D?

OA as we know is E (hate it when I have gotten it down to D and E and then get it wrong :(

Thanks
