Q: Answer-In the question given below, a sentence is divided into five parts. There is/are error(s) in one par...

The parts D and E have errors. In part D, the plural form of the word trades is incorrect. It should be in parallelism with industrial to form a noun phrase with the noun policies since industrial modifies policies. Trade policies is contextually correct. In part E, promoting is incorrect since the sentence is not in continuous tense and not even the gerund is required, only a simple action is required. The given sentence says, Weak restrictions imposed by the international economic order enabled the developing countries to promote their economic and technological development. Part E talks about the consequences of the steps taken in previous parts So, promoting should be replaced by to promote.
