Question

Identify the part of a sentence which is grammatically incorrect:

[A] Many working men and women have been
[B] able to acquire a university degree
[C] during the last ten years after
[D] many universities have started correspondence courses

• A. A
• B. B
• C. C
• D. D
• E. No Error

Answer 1

The correct option is D D

The later half of the sentence is referring to a past action (men and women were able to acquire university degrees after the university started correspondence courses in the PAST ten years) and 'have' is a verb used in the present tense. Therefore, part D of the sentence should be changed to "... many universities started correspondence courses".
