Superiority over - correct idiom. That boils to B & D. D reads like a run-on sentence. Saurav :i think superiority to is the correct idiom . So C is the correct answer. Morever same verb form should be used for the two verbs demonstrated and proved.
4. B.
You cannot start the second part of this sentence using "by"
B is a clear winner over D.
Saurav : Only A here comes close to B . But A implies that the market equilibrium persuaded the people.
8. C

All other options have a pronoun disagreement error. Workers to themselves is correct . There is no referent for one , oneself in A , B n C. In option D workers n them dont agree .

I would go with B.
We require a restrictive clause "that" to specify the money. Although "oneself" does make me uncomfortable, I dont think its wrong.

I bet on "B". A and C tries to modify the word money, when actually it should not; as the entire subordinate clause is supposed to modify 'deferred payment of salary'. You need 'that' to narrow down the 'money' and hence restrictive . D and E are simply 'RunOn" cases and you throw them to trash... wts the OA ? pls don't tell my concept is wrong
All other options have a pronoun disagreement error. Workers to themselves is correct . There is no referent for one , oneself in A , B n C. In option D workers n them dont agree .
Saurav,
E is the OA. But why cant it be C? I agree all other options have a pronoun disagreement error. is oneself a pronoun here.even if it is ,doesn't it refer to the worker.
