    A B Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C E Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    In B, remove BUT, as the sentence has already used the conjunction ALTHOUGH, which is used to show contradiction, so the use of BUT is redundant. Thus, (a) is the right answer.
