According to the professor’s philosophy, the antidote to envy is one’s own work, always one’s own work: not thinking about it, not assessing it, but simply doing it.

(A) one’s own work, always one’s own work: not thinking about it, not assessing it, but simply doing it
(B) always work; because you don’t think about it or assess it, you just do it
(C) always one’s own work: not thinking about or assessing it, but simply to do it
(D) not to think or assess, but doing one’s own work
(E) neither to think about one’s own work nor to assess it, it is always simply doing it

This is a complex one. Cant think of a proper way to attack this.

Eliminated B, C, E ..they seem to be awkardly worded and distort the meaning (specially E)

Between A and D, I will settle for A, though wordy - it seems to bring out the 'philosphy' effectively.

Whats the OA?

i know D is incorrect because:

not to think or assess, but doing one’s own work

think/assess is not parallel with doing

but in A isn't one’s own work and always one’s own work repetitive?

OA is A
