karmaholic Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 Opt E. "accepting" here is a gerund.. singular.. we need "constitutes". Accepting X constitutes an act of corruption. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yngwie Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 Clearly E. What if choice "d" had "constitutes" in place of "constitute"? Answer is E If D had "constitutes", it would still be off. I think "to accept" needs a "would constitute". So, "to accept parental discipline that they consider unfair would constitute" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mav Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Answer is E If D had "constitutes", it would still be off. I think "to accept" needs a "would constitute". So, "to accept parental discipline that they consider unfair would constitute" So what is the difference between "would constitute" and "constitutes" here. I am still not sure whether "to accept.... constitutes" rite or wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
