The investigations of many psychologists and anthropologists support the generalization of there being little that is a significant difference in the underlying mental processes manifested by people from different cultures.
(A) of there being little that is a significant difference
(B) of there being little that is significantly different
(C) of little that is significantly different
(D) that there is little that is significantly different
(E) that there is little of significant differences

One report concludes that many schools do not have, or likely to have, enough computers to use them effectively.
(A) or
(B) nor
(C) or are
(D) nor are they
(E) nor are not

For first

IMO [spoiler]E:[/spoiler]
Being makes A and B wrong.
C: support the generalization requires that.
D: doesn't specify what is little.
E: Correctly specifies that there is little of significant difference.

For Second

IMO D:

do not have, or likely to have convey opposite message. In the context both should convey similar message. Only D conveys this message properly.

Hope this helps

For #1....IMO "D"...

The investigations of many psychologists and anthropologists support the generalization of there being little that is a significant difference in the underlying mental processes manifested by people from different cultures.
(A) of there being little that is a significant difference
We need that...generalisation that....Also there is being....which in general is wrong in GMAT.

(B) of there being little that is significantly different
We need that...generalisation that....Also there is being....which in general is wrong in GMAT.

(C) of little that is significantly different
We need that...generalisation that....

(D) that there is little that is significantly different
Correct
(E) that there is little of significant differences
differences is a countable noun....so we need few and not little...Also S-V mismatch..."is(singular).....differences(plural)"

You are right Mohit. I misread "that there is little of significant differences" with "that there is little of significant difference".

The answer should be D

for the second one:

(a) and (b) are incorrect because of their poor parallelism. in this "or" construction, the first half is "do not have", a tensed verb. therefore, the second half of the construction must also contain a tensed verb.
(a) and (b) don't have a tensed verb ("likely to have" contains only an infinitive - not what we want here).

--

as you've said, (e) contains a double negative, so it's out.

--

(c) is, as far as i can tell grammatically correct (although the commas are superfluous in such a construction), but it's simply absurd. the use of "or" here creates a sentence that is weirdly self-contradictory.
the clear point of the sentence is that the schools don't have enough computers, so you need to select the choice that's grammatically correct but also in line with that meaning. (d) is the only choice that satisfies both criteria.
Ron has been teaching various standardized tests for 20 years.
