<p>can’t view the picture… can you type it out?</p>
<p>I can’t see the problem…!!</p>
<p>The coaches weren’t very interested in winning games during spring training, they considered it as an opportunity to experiment with different permutations of players. </p>
<p>B) spring training; but they considered it
C) spring training, but
D) spring training as they were in using it
E) spring training they were in using it</p>
<p>Where is A? Lol. I guess it would be ‘no change.’ Well I think it is B… This one is more challenging. You know what, D makes more sense.</p>
<p>Is it…D?</p>
<p>D seems to be the only logical one… to me.</p>
<p>It’s D, and it’s a hard one. I arrived at D through POE, but can someone explain why?</p>
<p>I used POE as well.</p>
<p>I used POE also. haha.</p>
<p>I thought so… It seems the most logical. I thought it was B because it doesn’t sound like a run on as the others do, but then I read D and it seemed to make the sentence run more logically.</p>
<p>I searched for an explanation and found this.</p>
<p>This is from McGraw-Hill: Choice (D) is the correct answer because it is the only one that logically completes the as comparison.</p>
<p>Btw, the original question reads, “The coaches weren’t as…” not very.</p>
<p>Ah, I see. JefferyJung, that makes the question more clear. Lol.</p>
<p>as does make the question… much clearer haha
I just ruled out A, B, C, and E because A and E were run ons, B used both semicolon and a conjunction, and C does not introduce a subject after to be a compound sentence.</p>
<p>Is this a question?
I put D using elimination to be sure, but I will type you the REAL expl.</p>

E) spring training they were in using it </p>
<p>As introduces a subordinate clause which has a subject and verb(Everybody knows that).</p>
<p>I think what confused everybody is(as they were in using it). It seems logical to me. as they were in using(the season did NOT end) it(season is its ONLY antecedent).</p>
<p>Realityisadream / like I said above, there is a slight typo.</p>
<p>A - comma splice
B - But never really accompanies semicolons on the SAT (ive seen it once though)
C - the second part would not be a sentence
D - Correct!
E - R/O</p>
