Hi Rich,
In D, the words "In some cases" confuse me. (Nevertheless, the rest of the sentence does make sense)
The argument seems to be general.

How do w assume this applies to all the cases?
Could you please explain?

Thanks

Hi David,
I have a question about a sentence that you used for the explanation.
You mentioned "Choice A would be correct if this were still the 20th century."

Could you please explain the use of were and was?
I always get confused between were and was.

Thanks
