English Sentence Correction QUESTION #4906
Question 1
A patient accusing a doctor of malpractice will find it difficult to prove damage _____ about proper medical procedures.
  • if there is a lack of some other doctor to testify
  • unless there will be another doctor to testify
  • without another doctor's testimony✔️
  • should there be no testimony from some other doctor
Correct Answer Explanation
Without another doctor's testimony' is the most concise and idiomatic expression. Option A is wordy and unnatural ('lack of some other doctor'). Option B incorrectly uses future tense 'will be' inside a conditional clause. Option D is unnecessarily wordy. Option E (not shown) produces a dangling participial.
