The Federal Reserve announcement said that growth had accelerated after slowing in the second quarter and that the policy makers remain concerned about the prospects of inflation, even though there are few signs of higher energy prices driving up the cost of other goods so far.
A] that growth had accelerated after slowing in the second quarter and that the policy makers remain concerned about the prospects of inflation, even though there are few.
B] growth had accelerated after slowing in the second quarter and that the policy makers remain concerned about the prospects of inflation, even though there are few.
C] that growth had accelerated after slowing in the second quarter and the policy makers remain concerned about the prospects of inflation, even though there are little.
D] growth had accelerated after slowing in the second quarter and the policy makers remain concerned about the prospects of inflation, even though there are little.
E] that growth accelerated after slowing in the second quarter and that the policy makers remain concerned about the prospects of inflation, even though there are few.
OA Is A.[spoiler]
According to me it came down to the options A and E.
B] not parallel. You need a 'that' in the first half of the sentence.
C] again not parallel. You need a 'that' in the second part of the sentence also use of 'little' is wrong. Little is an uncountable noun. You need 'few'.
D] Same as C. Little is uncountable noun. Few is to be used. Also you need a 'that' in the sentence.
E] A very important option. I got trapped here. Remember you need a 'had' here, you cannot be not using a 'had' Read the sentence carefully and you will find that the growth was shown before and then the Federal Reserve made many announcement.
I came down to options A and E.
Hope this helps...
