    C 3 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 4 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Here, the second ‘late’ is incorrect. It should be ‘later’, because, the end date is being compared to the usual timing. So, comparative degree should be used. Due to late flowering, the season will start late and end later than usual this year.
