      Question

      Each sentence is divided into five parts (a), (b), (c),

      (d), and (e). Find the part that contains the error. If there is no error, choose (e) as your answer. If the organization had adhered strictly to the compliance protocols (a) / it would mitigate the risks associated with financial mismanagement (b) / and could have ensured greater transparency (c) / in its operational procedures over the years (d). / No error (e)
      A a Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B b Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C c Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D d Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E e Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      This tests third conditional consistency.  Rule: If + had + V3, → would have + V3  (a) correct: “had adhered”  (b) incorrect: “would mitigate” → wrong tense It breaks conditional consistency because the result clause must reflect a past hypothetical outcome.  Correct: → “it would have mitigated the risks
”  (c) “could have ensured” → correct  (d) correct Thus, error lies in part (b).
