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

It is between A and C and both look bad.. A is less worse than C
First take: 640 (50M, 27V) - RC needs 300% improvement

E is not parallel: to think, to assess, doing.
In B, semicolon before 'because' doesn't seem right.

Only A is parallel: thinking, assessing, doing.

Eventhough it is wordy, [spoiler]A makes sense and doesn't have serious grammatical errors and so I shall go with A[/spoiler]

Between A and C. I would go with A

Killed B and C because you can't have "do" then "doing."

A is missing a verb. What are we doing with the work?

Killed D because it's not complete. It changes the meaning because it stating one should not think or assess entirely, rather than on one's work.
NO EXCUSES

Hey bpdulog, assume the question is underlined till the last word otherwise none of the options makes much sense :)

Will choose A. But think "always one's own work" this is extra in that sentence. Rest all good.

What is the OA?

Thanks.

A - 'always one's own work' is acting as a modifier putting additional emphasis on noun "own work". Also follows the llel btn NOT X BUT Y.
X = THINKING ABOUT IT, ASSESSING IT; Y = DOING IT

B - Changes the meaning by switching from OWN WORK to WORK
C/D - does not maintain llelism

E - Its a fragment, 2nd part is not connected with first clause using fanboys

IMO A
