if you know the proper usage of like vs as, you can quickly get down to choices D and B. D has a meaning error, hence B is the only choice that fits the intended meaning of the sentence while also grammatically correct.

whats the problem with option A is it the idiom issue becuase i dont see any thing weird in the option ?

Hi AndrewN AjiteshArun



If I don't know the correct idiom , do you think this question still can be solved?
Above posts have mentioned modeled like is wrong. Undoubtedly it is wrong, Even if wrong intended meaning, it should be been " modeled as "( action comparison)
But in option A , like is mentioned, so I will look for a noun comparison with mother's . The comparison fits with face of xx like mother's and body like wife's body.

I don't think we should reject on basis of mother's vs that of his mother( marked in red text)

Please give your opinions.

Thanks!

I agree, mSKR, that we should not write off the original sentence simply because of the possessive in the comparison. If you prefer to look at the like issue more from a meaning standpoint than as an idiomatic construct, as Brian from Veritas Prep outlined in an earlier post, you could work through the question that way instead and arrive at the correct answer.

I will continue to urge you to concentrate your preparation on official questions—some of the 1000 Series questions are not from old OGs, even if they are labeled as such—but within this larger pool of questions, focus less on those that are from an older iteration of the test and more on those that resemble questions you might see today. (The older exam tested idioms more frequently, for example.) You can gain more from review than you can from taking on more and more questions. In fact, I would say that the person who can broadly apply lessons learned from a smaller set of questions is one who has a leg up on the test and can expect to earn a top score.
