(A) Child care
(B) With child care
(C) Child care as
(D) Being that child care was
(E) With child care's being
OA to follow. Pls explain your answers
experts, please explain the difference between B and E except being..
i think that in E being is gerund and "child care's being" is the correct construction.. please explain why this construction cannot be used with the statement above..
it might be possible that it is a part of employee benefit package so we need child care but not child care's being, right? this is an explanation that i might think o f my question.. please lemme know whether it is fine.. or please elaborate other solution.
HI ketkoag,
B is a Bingo here.. because,
we need some conjunction to join two sentences. Also in grammer, two independent clause will not makes meaning seperated by comma,
this is gramatically wrong as well..
here in this example,
clause 1: Child care already a solid part of the employee benefits package at many companies
clause 2: more businesses are focusing on a newer family benefit known as elder care
if these two were combined by comma, they wont make the meaning at all...
so we need to make clause modifying other clause which mkes perfect meaning.
SO by uisng "with" first clause modifies second clause by making the later main clause.
'Being' - here is wordy. You should know when 'being' will make sense.
Being excited about travelling to india, i bought new pair of shoes.
Here 'Being' is not required. So wordy
But,
Dentists in tennenesse hospital went on strike for being overworked.
here usage of 'being' is correct. It correctly means that dentists are overworked by hospital management.
Hope you got it
