Example 1:

[deleted because problem is from a banned source - see below]

OA: E
Basically the confusion is between choice B and E. "B" uses the subjunctive mood triggered by require whereas "E" uses the idiom require X to Y. What would be the correct usage of require in the above case ?

Example 2: Legislation in the Canadian province of Ontario requires of both public and private employers that pay be the same for jobs historically held by women as for jobs requiring comparable skill that are usually held by men.

(A) that pay be the same for jobs historically held by women as for jobs requiring comparable skill that are
(B) to pay the same for jobs historically held by women as for jobs of comparable skill that are

OA: A
Similarly here option A is correct which is in subjunctive mood whereas B uses the idiom require X to Y.

My question is do we prefer idiom to subjunctive mood or depends on case-to-case. Thanks

Will you please post the original sources of these questions?
