Hi All,
In the below question(OG-10, Q28), the OA is[spoiler] "E".[/spoiler]. OG gives the following reason for kicking out A, C and D.
A,C, D - incorrect - the that appearing after but creates a subordinate clause where an independent clause is needed for the new subject, mixed performance
Can somebody please help me understand the above explanation. Please tell how "that" creates the subordinate clause in the above case.
=========================================
The rise in the Commerce Department’s index of leading economic indicators suggest that the economy should continue its expansion into the coming months, but that the mixed performance of the index’s individual components indicates that economic growth will proceed at a more moderate pace than in the first quarter of this year.
(A) suggest that the economy should continue its expansion into the coming months, but that
(B) suggest that the economy is to continue expansion in the coming months, but
(C) suggests that the economy will continue its expanding in the coming months, but that
(D) suggests that the economy is continuing to expand into the coming months, but that
(E) suggests that the economy will continue to expand in the coming months, but
Thanks
Mohit
