Students need practice to ensure that they know how to decode Aspire™ questions and avoid becoming intimidated by the test. Unless students are practicing with items that perfectly emulate the Aspire™ rigor and approach, their time will be wasted. MasteryPrep has taken an enormous amount of care to ensure that every item that appears in the Aspire™ Elements Program meets our highest-quality standards.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The correct answer is B. Choice A is incorrect because being cannot be the main verb in an independent clause. Choice C is incorrect because the tense does not match the rest of the sentence. Choice D is incorrect because the comma creates a sentence fragment. Choice B is correct because it maintains the appropriate tense and is a complete sentence.
