OFFICIAL EXPLANATION: GMAT Sentence Correction by Brandon Royal
Choice D
Classifcation: Parallelism
Snapshot: This problem is included to highlight the use of parallelism in contexts of ellipsis.
To test choice D, simply complete each component idea, making sure each makes sense. “Cannelloni
has been my favorite dish …Cannelloni always will be my favorite dish.” Now check this against the
original: “Cannelloni was my favorite dish (doesn’t work)…Cannelloni always will be my favorite dish.”
Choice E suffers the same fate as choices A and B, erroneously omitting has been. Choices B and C are
muddled; the word “was” illogically suggests that Cannelloni was once a favorite dish but no longer is.
