      A A Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B B Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E E Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      The correction involves replacing "besides" with "beside" to maintain the correct preposition usage.
