intensified as well Hollywood celebrities using their platforms to support their preferred candidates for the presidency. In the question below, a sentence is given with a part of it printed in bold type. That part may contain a grammatical error. Each sentence is followed by phrases 1), 2), 3) and 4). Find out which phrase should replace the phrase given in bold to correct the error, if there is any, and to make the sentence grammatically meaningful and correct.Solution
The original phrase "is also intensified as well" is incorrect because it suggests a passive construction that doesn't fit the context. The correct phrase should use "is also intensifying" to convey that the endorsement game is actively growing. The word "with" appropriately connects the endorsement game to the action of Hollywood celebrities using their platforms. Thus, option 2 is the best choice for correcting the sentence.
