Make a special effort to do something.
It was good of you to go to the trouble of helping me with my shopping when I broke my arm.

Hello...
I'm still having trouble understanding the difference between other, another and others...
And since I've got my TOEFL test tomorrow it would be really helpful if someone helped me out on this one...
It's one of those exercises where you have underlined words and have to pick the one incorrect and I can't find the error...
"Particles with unlike charges attract each other, while particles with alike charges repel each other"
Underlined words: A) unlike B)while C) alike D) other (the second one)
Can someone PLEASE point out the mistake and explain it to me?
Thanks in advance |

My guess is, we use 'like and unlike' in discussing scientific processes, rather than 'alike and unlike', so 'alike' is the mistake.
It should be 'like'.
