Mmmm A or B. The "are" sounds off to me. Is it really necessary?

American Indians point out that they are not one body they speak hunreds of different languages, and they are probably more different from one another than people who live in various European capitals.


a) from one another than people who live in various European capitals

b) from one another than are people who live in the in various capitals of Europe

c) each from the others than people living in various European capitals

d) than people who live in various capitals of Europe from each other

e) from each other as people living in the various capitals of Europe


I will go with B....becoz the "are" is needed to make sure that the comparison is well directed. We are comparing the difference between people among the Inidan tribes and Difference between the people across various european cities. B clearly states that. A makes us think that we are directly comparing people while it is the "Difference" that is actually compared..

Please post OA and I apologize if I turn out wrong...

C & E useless.
D changes the meanings.
So left with A or B. 'Than are' in B leaves me with A.

So, A is my choice. OA, please?
