• B. b
• C. c
• D. No error

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

a

Let’s examine the sentence: “In consideration for the bereaved family's feelings the paper did not print the story.” The sentence needs the idiom “in consideration of” but it wrongly uses “in consideration for.” Hence, to correct the sentence, “for” should be replaced by “of” in the sentence. So, the error is in Part a of the sentence. Hence, Option A is the correct answer.
