The following sentence has not been edited. There is one error in the line. Pick the incorrect word and the correction from the given options that completes the sentence correctly.

We are in dangerous times, because they have too much freedom.

• A. Incorrect= we, Correct= I
• B. Incorrect= are, Correct= is
• C. Incorrect = they, Correct = we
• D. Incorrect= We, correct= Them

Answer 1

The correct option is C Incorrect = they, Correct = we

Options A) and B) are wrong because the sentence talks about a group of people, indicated by the words 'we' and 'are' at the beginning of the sentence.

Option D) is incorrect because the sentence becomes grammatically incorrect. So, the best answer is option C) where 'they' is replaced by 'we' so the sentence becomes 'We are in dangerous times, because we have too much freedom."
