You have to identify which pair among the given alternatives represents the parts that contain those errors. If none of the parts have any error, then mark option 5, i.e., ‘No error’ as your answer.

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

    Solution

    The phrase "in field" is missing a possessive pronoun. It should be "in her field" to specify whose field is being referred to. Part C: The conjunction "even" is used incorrectly. The correct conjunction is "even though" or "even when" to express the contrast between challenging authorities and knowing the risks.
