writingWhich choice completes the text so that it conforms to the conventions of Standard English?
A
that of a corporate employee
B
those faced by a corporate employee
C
a corporate employee
D
corporate employees
Correct Answer: A
Choice A is the best answer. The sentence compares the "career trajectory" (singular) of an artist to that of an employee. "That of" correctly replaces the singular antecedent.
Choice B is incorrect because "those" is plural. Choice C is incorrect because it compares "trajectory" to an "employee." Choice D is incorrect because it compares "trajectory" to "employees."
