Hi
mikemcgarry,
I needed your help in understanding the official explanation for a wrong choice.
though-widely-used-for-decades-to-fuel-137625.htmlI understand the question and got the correct answer but the explanation about Choice B is bothering me.
Choice B : "
Natural gas has still accounted for far less of the energy consumed in the United States as OilThe OE says that sentence attempts to compare oil with what gas has done.
I thought the comparison was fine (leaving the idiom error - less than)
For eg :
I have same pen as you [have]..... is correctThen, accordingly "
Gas has less energy consumption than oil " [has].. Shouldn't this be correct? May be I am over thinking but need this confusion to be resolved.
Thanks in advance
Regards
