    C 3 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 4 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    In part (1), "significance" is a noun, but the sentence requires an adjective to modify "representation" to describe what kind of representation is at risk of being lost. The correct adjective form is "significant," not "significance."
