Read the paragraph.Neighbors are already looking forward to the grand opening of the Englewood Aquatic Center and the recreation that the center’s Olympic-sized pool will provide. With proof of address, residents will be able to sign up for discounted swimming lessons and attend weekly open swim sessions for free. The new swimming facility will take two years to build. It will be state of the art.
Answer
A
Constructing this new state-of-the-art swimming facility will take two years.
B
The two-year construction of the swimming facility will be state of the art.
C
Taking years to complete, construction of the state-of-the-art swimming facility will be complete.
D
Construction of the new swimming facility will take two years and be state of the art.
Explanation
Choice A combines the two ideas clearly: the facility is state of the art, and building it will take two years. The hyphenated phrase “state-of-the-art” describes the swimming facility. In choice D, “be state of the art” appears to describe the construction process rather than the facility.
