Question 87

Large and experienced firms are more efficient at acquiring smaller and distressed firms than are large and inexperienced firms, and converting them to profitable ventures.

Solution

Option A is a distorted statement rephrasing as it has removed the comparison between large and experienced firms with large and inexperienced firms. Option D can be ruled as each clause needs a subject and a verb. Since D is missing the model verb 'are', it is not grammatically correct.

Between B and C, since B is grammatically accurate and has more consistency than C,

the correct option is B.
