Salt deposits and moisture threaten to destroy the Mohenjo-Daro excavation in Pakistan, the site of an ancient civilization that flourished at the same time as the civilizations in the Nile delta and the river valleys of the Tigris and Euphrates.
(A) that flourished at the same time as the civilizations
(B) that had flourished at the same time as had the civilizations
(C) that flourished at the same time those had
(D) flourishing at the same time as those did
(E) flourishing at the same time as those were
OA: A
@Experts - I got this one right. But got a doubt - 'as' should be followed by a verb/clause. But in the OA the verb is dropped; is it OK to drop the verb in comparison after 'as' when the tenses of both the verbs for both items of comparison are same ? Kindly explain.
