One common mistake that ____.
(A) thinking that it
(B) would be a waste of time
(C) to work together
(D) many people have made is
Choose the correct answer from the options given below
Solution
Option 1 -> Forms: "One common mistake that many people have made is thinking that it would be a waste of time to work together" - grammatically correct and meaningful.
Option 2 -> Forms: "One common mistake that would be a waste of time to work together thinking that it many people have made is" - grammatically incorrect and incoherent.
Option 3 -> Forms: "One common mistake that to work together thinking that it would be a waste of time many people have made is" - improper structure and lacks logical flow.
Option 4 -> Forms: "One common mistake that to work together would be a waste of time many people have made is thinking that it" - awkward construction with misplaced elements.
Hence, Option 1: (D), (A), (B), (C) -> The sequence properly connects the relative clause "that many people have made," follows with the verb "is," and completes with the gerund phrase "thinking that it would be a waste of time to work together," creating a grammatically sound and meaningful sentence about a common misconception regarding collaboration -> correct
