<p>Quite easy question here for experts, though confusing to me:</p>

<p>In a recent year, more tourists from the US visited museums in Great Britain than ______.
(A) Canada
(B) Canada did
(C) compared to Canada's
(D) Canadian ones
(E) in Canada</p>

<p>The answer is E and I got it wrong because I changed my answer form E.
Though the answer explanation talks about parallelism, the whole sentence doesn't sound right with the option E.
-> In a recent year, more tourists from the US visited museums in GB than in Canada.</p>

<p>Shouldn't it be "those in Canada" to ascertain that the "museums in GB" is being compared to the blank? It doesn't sound grammatically right to take out "those."</p>

<p>Plus, the collegeboard website says that D is wrong b/c of pronoun confusion (between "tourists" and "museums"), but who would indicate "tourists" or people as "ones"? (Sounds rude to me.. :) )</p>

<p>D is incorrect because “Canadian ones” is ambiguous; it could refer to the tourists or the museums.</p>

<p>E is correct because not only is it parallel, but it specifically indicates that the comparison is referring to museums, not people (in GBR…IN Canada). It’s kinda hard to explain haha</p>

3

<p>it says IN Great Britain…so like wise it should be IN CANADA</p>
