Question

Select the pair of phrases from COLUMN I and COLUMN II that correctly combine to form grammatically and contextually accurate sentences.

**COLUMN I**
(A) A lack of meaningful GDPR enforcement by
(B) Neither companies nor CMPs seem keen on
(C) The results of our empirical survey

**COLUMN II**
(D) shoring up that pathetic 12 percent compliance rate
(E) regulators had already been fairly well established
(F) stop data collection, or misled the end user

Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. Pair (A) and (E) combine to form the sentence:  
   _"A lack of meaningful GDPR enforcement by regulators had already been fairly well established."_  
   This is grammatically correct and contextually meaningful.

2. Pair (B) and (D) combine to form the sentence:  
   _"Neither companies nor CMPs seem keen on shoring up that pathetic 12 percent compliance rate."_  
   This sentence is also grammatically sound and contextually appropriate.

3. Other combinations do not form correct or meaningful sentences:
   - (B) and (F) do not connect logically.
   - (C) with (F) or (D) does not create a proper sentence.
   - (B) and (E) do not fit together logically.

**Answer:** (a) A-E & B-D
