    A Reddit at Monday said it expects to price shares Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B each when it makes its long-anticipated Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C initial public offering, which will make it Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D media company to go public in years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

      In A, replace the preposition AT with ON. We use the preposition ON with WEEKDAYS and DATES. We use AT for a precise time. The sentence would then read, "Reddit on Monday said it expects to price shares between $31 and $34 each when it makes its long-anticipated initial public offering, which will make it the first social media company to go public in years". Thus, A is the right answer.
