    D B&E Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The phrase "I added I felt the way was wide open..." is grammatically incorrect. It's missing a linker or conjunction to connect the two clauses. The sentence should likely be "I added that I felt the way was wide open...". The verb phrase "to came along" is incorrect. The verb "to" requires the base form of the verb, which is "come." The sentence should read, "...for someone to come along and set out..."
