[B] of extreme important during their day
[C] they had become dead languages
[D] by the begining of the fifteenth century

• A. A
• B. B
• C. C

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

B

The given sentence talks about two languages – Greek and Latin. Part [A] of the sentence introduces the two languages. Part [B] of the sentence mentions that these two languages were of great value during their day. The word used is 'important' which is an adjective but the word needed is the noun form of the word i.e importance. Therefore, part [B] is the incorrect part of the sentence and the correct answer is option (B).
