Verbal Question of the Day Chat Group

C and D have sjv

their refere to websites... but that is nonsense

D has "overrilance.... are" and C has "overrilance.. diminish"

I have read it somewhere: That helps to join independent clause like a conjunctionn and its compulsory to have an indepoendent clause after that

Semicolon is used to conjoin two independent clauses. Hence it is mandatory to have an IC( Subject+verb+object). D is the correct choice.

MowGreen, a company that uses sustainable methods to maintain lawns, has been expanding quickly, and Its services are now available In many areas of the country. However. given the state of the economy In the Drawnvllle area, MowGreen would not be able to operate profttably there. Therefore.one can be sure that MowGreen will not expand Its operauons Into the Drawnvllle area any time soon.
Which of the following Is an assumption logically necessary for coming to the conclusion of the above argument?
a) MowGreen’s management team considers profitability In determining whether to expand Into an area.
b) People In the area around Drawnvllle are not Interested In using sustainable methods for ma1nta1n1ng their lawns.
c) There remaining In the country areas In which MowGreen is not currently operating Into Which It could profitably expand iIts operations.
d) MowGreen operates profitably in all of the areas In which It currently operates.
e) Sustainable methods for maintaining are generally more expensive to use than are less environmentally friendly methods.
answer is (a), whynot (c)

E. Other options are way too specific.

Statement - MowGreen would not be able to operate profitably in the Drawnville Area.

Conclusion - MowGreen will not expand its operations in the Drawnville Area.

Assumption therefore has to connect profitability with expansion. Therefore option A is clearly the best choice.

B

Heart of the passage is - Mowgreen will not expand its operations into Drawville area anytime soon (it may expand later) given that it is expanding quickly and Drawville does not seem profitable to them as of now. Assumption - Profitability is a necessary criterion for Mowgreen’s expansion. Option A.

doesn’t this statement -
"Mowgreen would not be able to operate profitably there"
in passage can help us in assuming that- in the mowgreen operates profitabily in the areas where it currently operates

An assumption must always be TRUE. Hence, negating it must break the conclusion. Even if Mowgreen DOES NOT profitably operate in the areas it currently operates, the statement won’t break the conclusion that ‘Mowgreen will not expand its operations into Drawville area anytime soon’. Whereas negating option A does break.

Thank you!

There are 2 different companies; merger is singluar

The subject is merger here which is singular so all the options with “are intended” will be eliminated and singular ‘is’ should be used imo

Singular*
