    C C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The error is in part C. The preposition "before" must be followed by a noun or a gerund (verb ending in -ing). The base form verb "start" is incorrect; it should be "starting." The corrected phrase is: "his mind before starting his busy workday."
