• A. A
• B. B
• C. C
• D. D
• E. E

Answer 1

The correct option is E E

The sentence structure should be Subject+ verb+ predicate. The subject is "The five brothers ", the noun phrase, the verb "are", and the predicate is, "at daggers-drawn", the subordinate clause, "so they feel...dignity". Therefore, the given sentence structure is correct, that is, no error. Hence, Option E is correct. The rest of the options do not adhere to this rule, hence, incorrect.
