I think that E and D are both wrong because they start with "the only thing" and then they mention more than one thing.

From A,B and C the best one is C.



The answer is C.

I dont like so many ands though.

thanks

I pick B.
because A, C, D, E are putting "is" and "leave" together.

But B is not perfect. It would be better if there is an "to" after "and." But GMAT is not looking for perfect answer but the best answer.

4.
Ir is an oversimplified view of cattle raising to say that [all one has to do with cattle is leave them alone while they feed themselves, corral them and to] drive them to market when the time is ripe.

a] all one has to do with cattle is leave them alone while they feed themselves, corral them and to

b] all one has to do with cattle is to leave them alone to feed themselves, to corral them and

c] all one has to do with cattle is leave them alone while they feed themselves and then corral them and

d] the only thing that has to be done with cattle is leave them alone while they feed themselves, corral them and

e] the only thing that has to be doen with cattle is leave them alone while they feed themselves, to corral them and

We can narrow to C and D.
D clearly change the meaning and worng. The only thing is A, B, and C :cry:
C has many end but they are in perfect correct. "... leave them and THEN (corral and drive)..." = do one thign and Then (do 2 more things)
