    A I-A&B, II-C&D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B I-B, II-A&D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C I-B&D, II-A Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D I-C, II-A&C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No Error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    I- C: ‘It’s’ will be replaced by ‘its’. It’s is a contracted or short form of ‘it is’. While showing possession of something / someone we use ‘its’, as it is the possessive form of ‘it’. II- A: ‘View’ should be replaced by ‘views’ as it is being preceded by the collective noun ‘government’ and not any plural form.    C: ‘Bounded’ will be replaced by ‘bound’ as bounded represents the past tense which will make the sentence grammatically incorrect.
