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.
Options:
A .  Like idiots, talking to them like they
B .  As if they were idiots, talking to them like they
C .  Like idiots, talking to them as if they
D .  As idiots, talking to them like they
E .  No wonder that centuries after it happened, the Black Death is still a bestseller.
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.
