My Answer is B
sandy_venkat SaysThe answer is E. Its a direct case of violation of the parallelism rule. How items.... should be logically connected with how frequently... In D, we have the 'how..' but the ending is messed up. It goes into a different tense. E puts it correctly. Am i right??
I too find E to be more convincing. But i ruled out "often" part by its actual usage than the gramattical content that you had mentioned about.
Can you please explain that for me
