      Solution

      ·         Part B: The noun "yearn" is used incorrectly. The correct word is the noun "yearning." The sentence should read, "...you can feel his yearning for a French leader..." ·         Part E: The preposition "through" is incorrect. The correct preposition is "with," as it indicates a state or condition. The sentence should read, "...who left office with satisfaction ratings of 87 percent."
