I got the answer right.
Just had a doubt,I always face a problem with pronoun and its antecedent. Actually its the only place where I make mistake in SC section.
Like here I think 'their' is pointing out to 'manufactured goods' or 'is it a collective noun'?
Also, if a noun is present in a non-essential clause like in this sentence then can 'a pronoun in an essential clause point to it' or 'can it only point to a noun in an essential clause'?
Asking a question like this seems silly but I always fail in pronoun-antecedent errors.
My Gmat exam is scheduled on 23rd November. Any advice from any of the experts on CR's weaken and strengthen section I have problems handling them too.
