Each of the following consists of the same statement, constructed differently. Choose the sentence construction which is grammatically correct.
A. Despite the validity of some of the management's claims, there was blatant hostility from the workers.
B. Despite their validity, some of the management's claims faced blatant hostility from the workers.
C. Although some of the management's claims had validity, the workers responded with blatant hostility
D. Despite the validity of some of the claims made by management, there was blatant hostility from the workers.
Explanation: Rule out B because the claims did not face hostility. Rule out E because workers are not to be modified by the opening modifier. Rule out A and D because the opening modifier is followed by \there\". Those aren't the best way of constructing the sentence. C is correct."
