Question

Correct the underlined part of the sentence, if needed.
More and more holidaymakers are choosing to fly to remote islands in search of the perfect beach; seeking sand, sun and palm trees, rather than centers of entertainment

• A. ; seeking sand, sun and palm trees, rather than centers of entertainment
• B. ; seeking sad, sun, palm trees and not entertainment
• C. , with sand, sun, palm trees and no entertainment
• D. , they seek sand, sun and palm trees, rather than entertainment centers
• E. ; they seek sand, sun and palm trees, rather than centers of entertainment

Answer 1

The correct option is E ; they seek sand, sun and palm trees, rather than centers of entertainment

Here, the correct answer must join the two sentences with a semi-colon. A and B use a semi-colon incorrectly; D needs a semi-colon and C lacks parallelism. Only option E avoids these errors and does not make any new one. Option E is the correct answer.
