: Thank you

trivikram · Answer

Both are correct forms "eveidence of" and "evidence that"

Is it B here?

800GMAT · Answer

I think B is the right answer. I think idiom usage in this case wud vary according to the context. So, in this case B fits well.

Vasudha · Answer

yup, B is the right answer

GMAThopeful · Answer

evidence and evidence that are both correct forms. 

In this case, .. the star  exploded  into view by  emitting  light... as given in (B).  Hence (B) 

In other choices, the combination of actions has been incorrectly depicted...

(A) exploding ... emitting

(C) exploding ... emitted

(D) exploding ... emitting

(E) exploded ... emitted


I don't know if I am clear...

Vasudha · Answer

So if we write in simple form
 

 B- evidence that a star exploded, emitting radiation.. 
 E- evidence of a star that exploded and that emitted radiation..

 What makes B superior to E? I am not able to eliminate E for a strong reason. Perhaps I am missing something..

AimHigher · Answer

In addition to the given explanations E also has and 'that'

what does that refer to star/full moon

B is clear

Vasudha · Answer

Thank you all for the explanations.
