1000sc -103

by abhishek.pitti Sat Mar 20, 2010 12:13 pm

[Deleted because this question is from a banned source - see below.]



This is were I get stumped big time....I knwo the rule of parallelism after twice and in most cases of comparison using than; It should be x than y or x as much as twice y ...but I am not able to make relation between x and y here. I choose A which is the right answer cuz of 'that' but I donno y b c d e are wrong.


Please help, I think I have this big problem with quantity in comparison....

Thank you!

I got A by the method of elimination.
--> eliminate B,C,E because expenditure is not parallel to expended after the ";"
--> eliminate D because Germans (people) are not parallel to country US=country

please correct me if I am wrong....

1000SC is a banned source because it illegally uses copyrighted problems without permission. (And, even if it didn't, we'd ban it anyway - a lot of the problems in the set are fine, but there are a number of bad ones that can actually mess up your study if you use them!)
