1) D: it avoids all the redundancy.

2) E : practical at the end makes more sense..

came back to the forum after a long time and saw these couple of interesting questions -

Q1 - A
I dont think there is much of a difference between the these two choices - the difference is one of a style - the first sentence puts more emphasis on the remarkability of the grandmother and the second puts more emphasis on "of all the people i have ever met".

1)My grandmother is the most remarkable person of all the persons I have ever met.
2) Of all the persons I have ever met, my grandmother is the most remarkable person.

that said, one thing is important to notice = the formal usage is most....of all and not
of all ...most

Q 2 - B

there are a few issues in the sentence -

different than Vs different from -> correct
Refer back Vs refer refer back is reduendant
practical Vs practicable. these are two different things, a solution can be practical and practicable.


Let us know anyway what the OAs are.

[vishgoel]

i would go with 'B' and 'B' respectively for both of them.

Official Answer por favor, el señor ....

[dreamz]

Official Answer - B and B.

[alex_cute]

I would choose D and E
D for the first because it avoids redundunt PERSON in the second part.
E for the second because first, REFER BACK is not redundant and second, practical indeed sounds better to me.

Dreamz, is there any explanation why D and E are incorrect? Could you please let us know why these choices are wrong?
