Question
Critics often site the potential (A)/for these funds to
trade (B)/at a share price that is not aligned (C)/with the value of the underlying securities (D). Read each sentence to find out whether there is any grammatical error in it. The error, if any, will be in one part of the sentence. Mark the part with the error as your answer. If there is no error, mark ‘No error’ as your answer (Ignore the errors of punctuation, if any).Solution

The correct word is ‘cite’, which means ‘to mention something as proof for a theory or as a reason why something has happened’. Critics often cite the potential for these funds to trade at a share price that is not aligned with the value of the underlying securities.
