A. conditions, and in using the set of objective criteria they derive from these analyses, can decide B. conditions, and they use the set of objective criteria derived from these analyses in deciding C. conditions and, in using the set of objective criteria derived from these analyses, deciding D. conditions and, using the set of objective criteria derived from these analyses, decide E. conditions and, in their use of the set of objective criteria they derive from these analyses, they decide i think the catch here for option D is executives examine ..........,and........ ,decide .... this maintains parallelism and thus sound correct answer.

in my opinion the answer is B.

In option D , the "it" relates to event but this shud point back to Plant and animal extintion which mark the end of era ... So , Option E wins here! BTW wat is the OA?

option E can be a answer. Sixty-five million years ago, according to some scientists, an asteroid bigger than Mount Everest slammed into North America, which, causing plant and animal extinctions, marks the end of the geologic era known as the Cretaceous Period. D. an event that caused plant and animal extinctions, and it marks E. an event that caused the plant and animal extinctions that mark Correctly mmodifies event and then extinction ..

IMO E. Certain items—those with that hard-to-define quality called exclusivity—have the odd property, when they become available for sale, of selling rapidly even though they are extremely expensive. In fact, trying to sell such an item fast by asking too low a price is a serious error, since it calls into question the very thing—exclusivity—that is supposed to be the item’s chief appeal. Therefore, given that a price that will prove to be right is virtually impossible for the seller to gauge in advance, the seller should make sure that any error in the initial asking price is in the direction of setting the price too high. The argument recommends a certain pricing strategy on the grounds that (A) this strategy lacks a counterproductive feature of the rejected alternative (B) this strategy has all of advantages of the rejected alternative, but fewer of its disadvantages © experience has proven this strategy to be superior, even though the reasons for this superiority elude analysis (D) this strategy does not rely on prospective buyers estimates of value (E) the error associated with this strategy, unlike the error associated with the rejected alternative, is likely to go unnoticed in 1st go u cud set price high , so if we make ny mistake , price can be lower , so error made on high price can go unnoticed !

many cars ....... had been sold ... is correct usage .. in 1st part simple past tense with passive voice is used , so its a rule to use past perfect i.e. "had been" so IMO its B. HTH
