writingWhich choice completes the text so that it conforms to the conventions of Standard English?
A
her books on French cooking
B
James Beard
C
other chefs
D
in the past
Correct Answer: A
Choice A is the best answer. The sentence compares "her television shows" (reason for recognition) to "her books" (reason for recognition). This is a logical comparison.
Choice B is incorrect because it compares "shows" to a "person." Choice C is incorrect because it compares "shows" to "chefs." Choice D is incorrect because "in the past" is a prepositional phrase of time.
