grammatical error in it. The error, if any, will be in one part of the sentence. The number of this part is your answer. If there is no error in the statement, then mark option (5) as your answer choice. The journalist, who was awarded (A) / the prize for investigating reporting, (B) / has exposed several scams (C) / in the last five years (D).Solution
The phrase "investigating reporting" is incorrect because "investigating" is a verb (present participle), and it does not correctly describe the type of reporting.
The correct word should be an adjective describing the reporting. The appropriate adjective here is "investigative," which means reporting that involves investigation.
Alternatively, "investigation reporting" can sometimes be used, but the most common and correct term is "investigative reporting."
