<p>Mediators were standing by,prepared (to intervene in)A the labor dispute (even though)B both sides (had refused)C earlier offers (for)D assistence.
Why the answer is D?</p>
<p>Professor Chen repeated(her point that)A the hero,if (given)B the chance (to relieve)C the moment,would choose to (do it)D.
Why the answer is D?
Anybody wants to help me???</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Idiomatic error, should be "offers OF assistance)</p></li>
<li><p>Not quite sure. However I do know that “do it” is vague.
Also, there might be a lack of parallelism here.
If given a change to relieve … he would… do it.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>I believe that the second problem should say
‘would choose to do so’
it should not be used when there are words that better clarify the main point of the sentence</p>
<p>Corrected Sentence
Professor Chen repeated(her point that)A the hero,if (given)B the chance (to relieve)C the moment,would choose to do so (D).</p>
<p>I agree with widly05.</p>
<p>“It” is ambiguous. It could refer to relive just by itself or to relive the moment.</p>
<p>First question: of assistance not for assistance.
Second question: 'would choose to do so" is very unclear.
And, henry1992, you might want to work on your spelling.</p>
<p>^you’re wrong. “would choose to do so” is the correct usage because “it” is ambiguous. To help better clarify that, substitute, “chance” with “it” and sound out the sentence. </p>
<p>Professor Chen repeated her point that the hero,if given the chance to relieve the moment,would choose to do THE CHANCE."</p>
<p>That makes no sense, grammatically. </p>
<p>And reliving the chance is a specific verb and therefore pronouns cannot modify the verb, only nouns. “would choose to do so” is referring to the verb–it is correct.</p>
