Question

    This question consists of a sentence which is divided into

    four parts numbered (1) to (4). Only one part of the sentence is not acceptable in standard written English. Identify that part which contains an error.
    A The committee members were Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B asked to thoroughly review Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C the proposal before they will make Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D a final decision on the matter. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The use of "will make" after "before" is grammatically incorrect. In standard English, the simple present tense "make" should be used after "before" to indicate a future action.
