1.Although the Supreme Court ruled as long ago as 1880 that Blacks could not be excluded outright from jury service, nearly a century of case-by-case adjudication has been necessary to develop and enforce the principle that all juries must be drawn from a fair cross section of the community. (A) has been necessary to develop and enforce the principle that all juries must be (B) was necessary for developing and enforcing the principle of all juries being (C) was to be necessary in developing and enforcing the principle of all juries to be (D) is necessary to develop and enforce the principle that all juries must be (E) will be necessary for developing and enforcing the principle of all juries being
expln plz.
IMO A.
Necessary to is the correct construction.
B. being at the end is awakward. C. Was to be is incorrect D. is-- not correct E. Will be is future tense.

Primarily, this is a tense SC..+ subjunctive is there as well..
Supreme court ruled that X, (yet-hidden) (showing Contrast) " rest is talking what happens with this decision"...blah blah..
1) Once the SC ruled, the trial to implement the decision started and continued from that time onwards...-> A perfect state of starting of event and thereafter the ifs and buts to implement it...
So is, will are out of question...
B) has a 'being'.....only possible with adjective (if any in gmat) otherwise 99.99% wrong
call between A/C..
i'll go with A..
reason principal OF / Principal THAT...i prefer later

IMO : A
Continuation from past to present...has been is the the right usage. B and C with simple past 'was' are ruled out. 'was to be' is awkward in C. Simple present in D is not right in this scenario as the continual action from the past is lost. More over, 'must be' is extreme. "will be" and "being drawn" dont agree in E.

========================= Discrimination in wages paid in occupations that are predominantly male over the predominantly female have given rise to substantial differentials between the wage of housepainters and secretaries and between the wages of parking-lot attendants and library assistants.

Developing nations in various parts of the world have amassed $700 billion in debts; at stake, should a significant number of these debts be repudiated, is the solvency of some of the worlds largest multinational banks.

1. E. Reason - A,B,C uses have which refers to singular 'discrimination' --- X D & E - close choice, but D is wrong because favours refer to the plural 'wages' --- X Only E is left
2. B/w A/D - Go with A cause it's concise B&C; - contains 'are' wchich refers to solvency --- X E - convoluted and awkward
Except for a concert performance that the composer himself staged in 1911，Scott Joplin's ragtime opera＂Treemonisha＂was not produceduntil 1972，sixty-one years after its completion． (A) Except for a concert performance that the composer himself staged (B) Except for a concert performance with the composer himself staging it (C) Besides a concert performance being staged by the composer himself (D) Excepting a concert performance that the composer himself staged (E) With the exception of a concert performance with the staging done by the composer himself.
Can anyone explain when should EXCEPT be used and when BESIDES?
Answer to this is A. Except for is an idiom. Also, "with an exception of" is also an idiom. With the exception of is also correct idiom. but E has a passive construct to E seems wrong. What is the correct answer?
Discrimination in wages paid in occupations that are predominantly male over the predominantly female have given rise to substantial differentials between the wage of housepainters and secretaries and between the wages of parking-lot attendants and library assistants. (A) paid in occupations that are predominantly male over the predominantly female have occupations compared with female. wrong (B) paid in occupations that are predominantly male over those that are predominantly female have "have" for singular Discrimination is wrong (C) that favors predominantly male occupations over the predominantly female have "have" for singular Discrimination is wrong (D) that favors predominantly male occupations over those that are predominantly female has correct. (E) paid in predominantly male occupations over the predominantly female has occupations compared with female. wrong

(A) should a significant number of these debts be repudiated, is (B) should a significant number of these debts be repudiated, are "are" for singular solvency (C) should they repudiate a significant number of these debts, are "are" for singular solvency (D) if there is a repudiation of a significant number of these debts, would be "if" and "would" dont go together (E) if a significant number of these debts will` be repudiated, is incorrect conditional clause. the correct form if "if(condition) in present tense", effect in future tense"
i would pick C! "having been" in B doesnt look good either.
whats the source of this problem??

Since you already gave out the OA as A. Here is a quick justification to it in my opinion.
B - ...as well as emit... - This modifies gasoline engines, as opposed to Diesel engines. So wrong. C - Far Fewer Carbon dioxide gas... - Wrong. D - "that" in the beginning and "having" in the end - wrong in this context.
A though sounds bad, seems to be the best choice. emitting clearly modifies Diesel engines.

simpest would be to check that option B ends with having...and as far as i know..we say having been it means it once existed but not now......but when we say having being it means it still is...that way this xplaination goes

Confused btw Option-A and C. Final call is for option-A. Although Option-C is quite close, "fewer" word is looking awkward than word "lesser".
1.Although the Supreme Court ruled as long ago as 1880 that Blacks could not be excluded outright from jury service, nearly a century of case-by-case adjudication has been necessary to develop and enforce the principle that all juries must be drawn from a fair cross section of the community. (A) has been necessary to develop and enforce the principle that all juries must be (B) was necessary for developing and enforcing the principle of all juries being incorrect tense. (C) was to be necessary in developing and enforcing the principle of all juries to be incorrect tense and sentence formation is not clear (D) is necessary to develop and enforce the principle that all juries must be no reference to continuity of action (E) will be necessary for developing and enforcing the principle of all juries being incorrect tense and meaningless.
in the contextual meaning of the word "principle", that had to come after it as a subjunctive filler..
so you cant have option B, C and E...
option D changes the meaning of the sentence..
hence by POE, answer must be option A
NOTE: There are 3 options amongst the 5 given that are fit to be correct choices, provided the tense and context changes..
good one..
