Question: 84

9. Since the course was not only ____ but also had a reputation for being extremely difficult, ____ students registered for it.

  • A. enjoyable ... many
  • B. required ... some
  • C. useful ... practical
  • D. optional ... few

Correct Answer: D

Explanation:

The correct answer is (D). The "not only ... but also" construction implies two complementary reasons why a classification of students might register for the course. Only choice (D) really fits this requirement. A course that is OPTIONAL and very difficult will draw FEW registrants.
