Answer:
Idiom
Explanation:
An Idiom is exaggeration using words that could have a double meaning.
The TWO (2) correct answer choices are:
____________________________________
[A]: "similar" ; <u>AND</u>:
_____________________________________
[D]: "equal" .
________<u>_____________________________</u>
<u>Note:</u>
Refer to the following sentence in the [given paragraph] that uses the word, "similar" :
_____________________________________
"... <span>Similar to golf, the object is to navigate a course in the least amount of strokes. ..." ;
_____________________________________
Also, refer to the following sentence in the [given paragraph] that uses the word, "equal" :
_____________________________________
"... </span><span>Where courses were once rare, disc golf has become a popular pastime equal to the popularity of Ultimate, also a flying disc-based sport. ..." .
_____________________________________
Note the other answer choices given:
_____________________________________
[B]: "determine" ; a verb that is not related to the word, "equivalent" .
_____________________________________
[C]: "pasttime" ; (NOTE: The correct spelling is, in fact, "pasttime"); which is a noun that roughly means "hobbie" or "activity of interest") has nothing to do with the word, "equivalent".
____________________________________
The question asks, "</span><span>Which TWO WORDS from the paragraph help the reader understand the meaning of equivalent?"
This leaves us with the remaining answer choices:
____________________________________
[A]: "similar" ; and:
[D]: "equal" — both of which are related to the word, "equivalent"; and both of which help the reader understand the meaning of the word, "equivalent" .

Answer:
Comma + present participle modifier is used to refer to the complete preceding clause - the modifier describes the result of the preceding clause or explains how the action in the preceding clause is done. Here the present participle "selling nearly...." is required to describe how Argentina became the leading exporter. Thus option D and E are left. IN option D the pronoun "It" does not a valid antecedent. Hence E is the best option among the given.
However in option E, the prepositional phrase "with almost half going.." refers in turn to the present participle modifier "selling..." - such usage is generally considered awkward in GMAT. A better, more GMAT-like construction would be:
In little more than a decade, Argentina has become the world’s leading exporter of honey, selling to foreign markets nearly 90,000 tons a year, half going to United States.
OR
In little more than a decade, Argentina has become the world’s leading exporter of honey, selling to foreign markets nearly 90,000 tons a year, half of them going to United States.
OR
In little more than a decade, Argentina has become the world’s leading exporter of honey, selling to foreign markets nearly 90,000 tons a year, half of which went to United States.
The above three alternatives show the correct usage of three different forms of subgroup modifier (referring to "90,000 tons").
