Read the sentence to find out whether there is any grammatical error in it. The error, if any, will be in one part of the sentence.
Scholarships and fellowships support learning (A) / but in engineering and tech education, they (B) / are also designed to motivated younger students (C) / towards greater, desired outcomes (D).
Correct Answer :
C
C
Solution :
The correct option is C.
Explanation:
Part (C) contains a grammatical error in the verb form following the preposition "to".
An infinitive structure requires "to" + base form of the verb (V1). Therefore, the past tense verb form "motivated" should be replaced with the base form "motivate".
Corrected Sentence:
"Scholarships and fellowships support learning but in engineering and tech education, they are also designed to motivate younger students towards greater, desired outcomes."
