    D The political impact of the budget is important in the context of the severity of the agrarian crisis and the kind of challenges the economy is facing. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E All are correct Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    In sentence A, the adjective 'slow' needs to be used, to qualify the noun 'wage growth'. In sentence B, the preposition 'in' should replace 'of', to indicate the time period (season) in which the production happens. In sentence C, the root form of the verb 'allow' needs to be used after 'to'. Sentence D is grammatically correct and meaningful.
