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. The investigative panel has been entrusted with the responsibility (a) / of delving into the allegations thoroughly (b) / and examining into every possible aspect of the case (c) / before submitting its final report (d). / No error (e)
Solution
Detailed Explanation: This tests subtle prepositional misuse with verbs.  “examining into” ; incorrect Rule: “Examine” is a transitive verb → does NOT take “into”  Correct: “examining every possible aspect” However: “delving into” is correct (phrasal usage)  one phrase correct (delving into)  one incorrect (examining into) Thus, error lies in part (c).
