    any grammatical/ contextual errors in them. The errors, if any, will be in two of the parts of the sentences and the combination of those parts will be the answer of that question. If no part in the sentence has an error then, mark 'No error' as your answer. Consider part (E) in bold as grammatically correct. (Ignore punctuation errors if any) When people ask for education, (A) / they does not merely ask for training, information, or (B) / facts, but for ideas that will help them (C) / to developing intelligent and logical explanations (D) / of the happenings in the world. (E)
    A AB Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B BC Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C BD Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D AD Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Solution The errors are in parts B and D. In B, the singular auxiliary verb DOES should be replaced with DO, as the subject pronoun THEY is plural. In D, the verb construction TO DEVELOPING should be replaced with DEVELOP, as the verb HELP is followed by the base form of a verb. Thus, C is the right answer.
