Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: No error.
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:
This sentence compares two subordinate clauses using the idiomatic correlative “as … as …”. It is a well-formed cleft-style comparison showing parallel structure on both sides of the comparison.
Given Data / Assumptions:
Concept / Approach:
Both “how you eat” and “what you eat” are clause-based noun equivalents. The comparison marker “as … as …” is appropriate for equality. Subject–verb agreement holds with singular complement “is”. No article or tense issues arise.
Step-by-Step Checks:
Verification / Alternative check:
Paraphrase: “Your manner of eating is as important as your choice of food.” The grammar remains correct.
Why Other Options Are Wrong (as error picks):
All segments A–D are correct; therefore the only correct choice is “No error.”
Common Pitfalls:
Overthinking article insertion (“the how you eat”); changing “is” to “are” due to multiple ideas—here the subject is a singular concept.
Final Answer:
No error.
