Question
For some reason the new consultant treats his clients like idiots, talking to them like they were mentally deficient and incapable of understanding more than the simplest ideas.
Answer: Option C
:
C
Option (C)
“Clients ‘like’ idiots” is the correct usage as nouns are being compared. Thus, B and D can be eliminated.
Talking is an action and would require ‘as’ and not ‘like’ after it; thus, A, B, and D can be eliminated.
E fails to provide complete meaning of the sentence.
