Stress patterns

by Dean Jones » Sun Dec 18, 2011 7:07 am
Dear Friends,

I was having problems in answering the following question.

Many teenagers undergo stress, but results of a recent study indicate that the patterns of stress that girls experience are more likely to result in depression than are those that boys experience.

(A) are those that boys experience
(B) what boys experience
(C) boys' experience would
(D) boys' stress patterns do
(E) stress patterns of boys


Please help.

OA after some discussions.

My choice was option B
Regards
Deano.

(A) are those that boys experience

(C) boys' experience would
(D) boys' stress patterns do
(E) stress patterns of boys
A has great parallelism.

Many teenagers undergo stress, but results of a recent study indicate that the patterns of stress that girls experience are more likely to result in depression than are those that boys experience.

Cheers,

Thanks Brent! That was helpful. I picked A though , my idea was to match the comparison experience of girls and experience of boys . In this way I thought than are in A is right
