Dazzling    (i) The scientist gave a dazzling presentation on the future of renewable energy. (ii) The dazzling effects of the new video game were stunning and captivating. (iii) His dazzling interest in the subject made him the most passionate student in the class.Solution
In sentence (i), "dazzling" is used correctly to mean impressive or amazing, referring to the presentation being outstanding. In sentence (ii), "dazzling" is also used correctly to describe something visually striking, referring to the video game effects. In sentence (iii), "dazzling" is incorrectly used to describe interest. "Dazzling" typically refers to something visually impressive or brilliant, not to describe an abstract concept like interest. A more appropriate word here might be "passionate" or "intense."
