Hi Ron,
The Republicans reacted to the speech with sustained applause; the Democrats, studied silence.
This one is the example of ''ellipsis'', but I can't get it how it works as 'ellipsis'. Can you please help me to comprehend?
Thanks...

Use of ''ellipsis''
The heights by great men reached and kept were not attained by sudden flight, but they, while their companions slept, were toiling upward in the night.

Re: Use of ''ellipsis''
i don't know what "ellipsis" means.
but, it's pretty clear that this sentence isn't from a source that has anything to do with the GMAT exam, so you are almost certainly wasting your time studying it.
the questions in this folder need to be based on GMAT-related items.
if you find the same issue in an actual GMAT problem, please post the problem with the issue (and, in addition, please find a way to ask the question without using unnecessary terminology). thank you.
