callmeDP Not sure if the query still persists as it was posted over 4 months ago. If it does, see if this helps
- Firstly, there is nothing wrong with the idea of objects moving. Trains, planes, cars, etc are all objects and they move. But more importantly, the option says that the objects seem to be moving. Seem is they key word here as far as logic goes. The sentence doesn't say that the objects are actually moving, they just seem to be moving.

When viewed from the window of a speeding train, the speed with which nearby objects move seems faster than that of more distant objects.
Comparison Analysis:
(A) the speed with which nearby objects move seems faster than that of
the speed with which nearby objects <--> that (the speed) of more distant objects
(B) the speed that nearby objects move seems faster than for
the speed that nearby objects move --> nearby objects move the speed --> we need some preposition here, such as "with"
(C) the speed of nearby objects seems faster than
the speed of nearby objects <--> more distant objects --> incorrect
(D) nearby objects' speeds seem to be faster than those of
nearby objects' speeds <--> those (speeds) of more distant objects
(E) nearby objects seem to move at a faster speed than do
nearby objects seem <--> more distant objects do (seem)
Question:
In A and D, do we need to repeat the verb "move" and "seem" or it is common verb for both so it is optional. Can any expert comment. Thanks!

Hi Adambhau,
In options A and D, we are comparing the speed of X to the speed of Y. Hence the use of “that/those of” is correct.
Eg- The surface of Earth is similar to that of Mars.
"move" is not a verb in option A. Moreover, we are not comparing an action but "speed"
In option E, we are comparing the action- move.
Hence we use the verb “do” to replace “move” and make the comparison parallel.
Eg- Cotton materials absorb more water than synthetic materials do.
