The correct answer is C

it carries the right parallelism

with (noun) and with (noun)

B is tempting

by (noun) and by (adverb "ly" ) verb

is not really parallel

Calista, I will go for E. Because, the first phrase "In addition to her work" is not matching with the subject - Leakey. So D and E remain. But again D is having some awkward phrases so cancel it out and E remains. IMO E. Calista, what's the OA? I am little bit confused as well. Please post the OA ...
Correct me If I am wrong


Regards,

Amitava

i think it should be D, because "in addition to" is a modifying phrase that modify "her work" and to make the 2nd sentecne pararllel to the 1st- it has to mention "her work" in the 2nd sentence ?

please post the answer, and let me know if im correct/wrong.

what is the answer

by resilient » Wed Jan 30, 2008 11:19 pm
THe answer should be C because of the "documentation of" is more grammatically correct. D and E are obviously wrong because nonparallel and possessive poison. B is wrong because of "contributed by" and A "documenting of" is wrong.

Answer is D?

I dont see how answer d is correct and not causing a parallelism issue! Doesnt choice D cause a modifier issue also!?

I agree

by gmat8000 » Wed Jan 30, 2008 11:49 pm
It can't be D. If it's D, then it's causing a modifier issue. Otherwise, it's unclear who "her" is
