    B professional, most disciplined and best funded Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C campaigns in history look as an enormous Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D act of democratic participation. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No Error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The error is in the use of the preposition "as."  When someone is describing how something appears or seems, the correct phrase is "look like," not "look as." The word "like" is used for comparison with a noun, while "as" is used for comparison with a clause or to describe a role.
