'for a long period'

by montz » Sat Jun 27, 2009 11:54 pm
It is possible to hold a certain image in your mind for long periods, and this can have a salutary impact on your own behavior and character.


• image in your mind for long periods, and this can have a salutary impact on your own
• image in your mind for long periods, and this can have a salutary impact on one’s
• image in your mind for long periods, and this has a salutary impact on your
• image in your mind for a long period, and this can have a salutary impact on your
• image in your mind for long periods, which has a salutary Impact on your

Answer is A. I think the answer should be D because it omits 'own' which seems redundant in this sentence, but the explanation is that 'for a long period' is wrong. Can anyone explain why?

IMO D should be the one.A can definitly not be the choice,as 'own' is redundant for sure

Yup.. "Your" and "own" seem together seems wrong.. What is the source of this question ?
