<li>Although gale force winds often pass through the Eiffel Tower, causing it to sway no more than four inches.</li>
</ol>
<p>(A) causing it to sway no more</p>
<p>(B) and yet it sways no more</p>
<p>(C) they do not cause it to sway more</p>
<p>(D) and they do not cause it to sway</p>
<p>(E) yet causing it to sway no more</p>
<p>I chose B however the answer is C
Can anyone explain this to me?</p>
<p>C’s the best answer. A, B, and E are a lot similar to each other because they use “sway no more” in the answer. And if you read each of the answers out loud, C fits it a lot better than all the rest. It doesn’t use “sway no more” and it clearly points out that gale force winds don’t cause the Eiffel tower to sway more.</p>
<p>That is my question what is wrong with B
by the way B uses sways no more not sway no more</p>
<p>You won’t use “although…and”. “Although…,” is like a dependent clause or sth (I can’t name it), and you should come up with a complete sentence after the “although…,” phrase/clause. I’m not professional but hope this helps. :P</p>
<p>ok thank you so much</p>
