PSAT Writing and Language Question 499: Answer and Explanation
Question: 499
- A. NO CHANGE
- B. had aging
- C. age
- D. aged
Correct Answer: D
Explanation:
(D) Notice the use of "increased" later in the sentence. That verb is in past tense, so the verb we choose must be in past tense to maintain parallelism. Choice (D) is the only past tense verb. "Had aging" could be confused for past tense, but the correct form would have been "had aged."
