In the face of widespread concern about environmental waste, compact disc manufacturers are attempting to find a replacement for the disposable plastic box in which they package their product.

(A) the disposable plastic box in which they
(B) the disposable plastic box where they
(C) a disposable plastic box in which to
(D) disposable plastic boxes inside which they
(E) the disposable plastic boxes in which to



Could anyone tell me why the answer is (A) and not (D)
I marked (D) thinking that the removal of "the" before the 'disposable plastic box' makes the statement more general and removes the idea of 'number of boxes' from the context. Please explain !!

'Tough' becomes subjective to individual perception and then this thread would be no more than a shadow of the already-running GMAT SC thread. In case someone intends to start a separate thread for Boldfaced SCs or CRs, it is okies!

So, I would suggest, you post your query at http://www.pagalguy.com/forum/gmat-a...scussions.html (GMAT Sentence Correction Discussions)
