Unusually-colored food items like green ketchup, pink margarine, and blue popcorn are aimed at consumers ages 5–17, but may soon influence adult foods as well.


A. are aimed at consumers

B. are aimed to consumers

C. are aimed to consumers’

D. is aimed at consumers

E. is aimed to consumers




KAPLAN OFFICIAL SOLUTION:



Correct Choice: (A)

Answer choice (A) uses the correct plural verb form“are” with the plural subject “items.” “At” is the correct preposition with verb “aimed.”

Choice (B) uses the incorrect preposition “to”; choice (C) also uses “to” and adds an apostrophe to “consumers,” unnecessarily making it possessive; choice (D) makes the verb singular, which no longer agrees with the plural subject; and choice (E) changes both the verb to the singular and the preposition to “to.”
