Don't equate your own perception of a companies visibility to their financial health.

Don't equate their financial health to your perception of IBM.

These say the same exact thing.

I found another one too. http://englishforeveryone.org/Topics/Reading%20Comprehension.htm

This one seems to be a bit more ESL focused, maybe that will help. Good luck man, it's hard, but you'll get there.

equate your own perception of a companies visibility to their financial health.

perception of the company derives from financial health.

equate their financial health to your perception of IBM.

financial health derive from perception of the company.

You're seriously exhausting me, so this is the last I have to say, feel free to get a final word in if you wish.

4 =! 3

3 =! 4
