Preparations for the Second World War witnessed a massive increase in the funding of science for military use, such as the Manhattan Atomic Bomb project, advanced radar technology and new initiatives in rocket propulsion, for, war-prone countries considered advances in technology critical to their success in the event of a war.
(A) such as the Manhattan Atomic Bomb project, advanced radar technology and new initiatives in rocket propulsion, for, war-prone countries considered advances in technology critical
(B) for the Manhattan Atomic Bomb project, advanced radar technology and for new initiatives in rocket propulsion, for, war-prone countries considered advances in technology critical
(C) like the Manhattan Atomic Bomb project, advanced radar technology and new initiatives in rocket propulsion, for, war-prone countries considered advances in technology to be critical
(D) such as the Manhattan Atomic Bomb project, advanced radar technology and new initiatives in rocket propulsion, for, war-prone countries considered advances in technology as critical
(E) such as the Manhattan Atomic Bomb project, advanced radar technology and new initiatives in rocket propulsion, for, war-prone countries considered advances in technology were critical
This question seems to be big, which normally scares me off, but I tackled it in a mere 1:46 minutes. Okay, so the way this could be seen is:
Upon looking at the question, one could notice that the question is having words such as, "Like" and "Such as". Hence, immediately getting in the mode of elimination, we can strike off options B and C
Left with the options that have "Such as", one could notice that the sentences have "consider" in it (I like the sentence with consider as it makes the eliminations faster). Such is the case with A, D and E.
General rule: "Consider" is an idiom that is not followed by
as,
to, or
wereTherefore, keeping this rule in mind, we can directly eliminate options D and E.
Hence the answer Choice A is correctSmiles and Kudos are free.. Don't think before giving
