I checked this question on other forums and it has been a long debate why D can not be the OA. I think we should stick to the authentic sources and spend our time on them. Let's kiss goodbye this question and have fun in 2009 with other sentence correction challenges :lol:

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

Hello my friends

a,b are wrong because subject is singular

c, "allow for it to do" is unidiomatic

d, "allow that" is unidiomatic

E is right

this is tricky, not hard question, my freinds.

No one said it was; the question is just wrong.

sorry to post on this wrong question thread... :-)

But i have just one query....can't we eliminate "c" and "d" because of parallelism being broken. In both c and d..."and" creates parallelism. And in both of the sentences there are no parallel X and Y there.

Please help.
