I don't know if it was a typo, but you don't want "The" capitalized in response D.

I found the question very confusing. Is there more? or is that it? I have a difficult time figuring out who is going to be wiped out by whom. I find it hard to believe that "interactivity" is going to wipe someone out. Likewise, I find it just as unbelievable that the shopping public will wipe people out (imagining little shoppers running around with machine guns and such ).

I feel sorry for you if this is the type of question you have to deal with on a regular basis. Where's the real grammar?

there's a whole text in front of this
I'll give you a summery

Interactive shopping is going to be very populair anytime soon as the public wants to see and feel the products
normal supermarkets and mall will survive as they provide better service

"Those" are all retailers

and the real grammer?
well we get questions like this to test both our vocabulary as out grammer
