    B AB Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C BD Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D CD Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Solution The errors are in parts C and D. In C, replace the adverb HEAVILY with the adjective HEAVY to modify the noun RAINS, and in part D, replace THOUSAND with THOUSANDS as we use the plural form of the word THOUSANDS when no definite number precedes it. Thus, D is the right answer.
