None of the houses that Frank Lloyd Wright built in the Prairie Style actually stood on the prairie, though the drawings in the 1910 Wasmuth edition of his work shows the buildings in the vast spaces of an imaginary Wild West.

A. work shows the buildings
B. work shows that the buildings were
C. works show the buildings
D. works show the buildings as being
E. works show the buildings to have been

OA C

Could someone help provide a rundown of each of these answers? I found this question somewhat difficult. I chose answer D, but I don't see what's necessarily wrong with that compared to the actual answer. Thanks!

Will keep below three options for subject verb agreement.
C. works show the buildings
D. works show the buildings as being
E. works show the buildings to have been

Now - Option D ( Being is redundant )
Option C is crisp and conveys meaning.

In option C, note that being is often incorrect on the GMAT.
Following are the scenarios in which it can be correct

1. as a noun
2. passive continuous verb tense - means that the action is currently going on.

In the given question, the buildings have already been built. Hence no need for being.

Please give me a reason to eliminate option E.

Many thanks in advance.

Hi Experts,

Please help understand why is C better than E? Doesn't E express the same idea as C?
