Although residents of the northcentral region of the United States are not known to have any accent, they nevertheless share certain distinctive utterances that help distinguish their speech from other regions.


(A) distinguish their speech from

(B) distinguishes their speech from those of

(C) distinguish their speech from that of

(D) distinguish the way they speak from

(E) distinguishes their manner of speaking from



This is a SC Butler Question




OFFICIAL EXPLANATION



The correct answer is (C).

The original sentence makes an illogical comparison between speech and region. Choice (C) corrects the problem by adding that of, without creating any new problems.
