Question

The following sentence has been split into four segments. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error.
"Though the / global financial crisis, / China's economy continues / to grow at an impressive rate."

A.

to grow at an impressive rate.

B.

china's economy continues

C.

Though the

D.

global financial crisis,

Correct option is C


Explanation of the Correct Answer: · The conjunction "Though" introduces a contrast statement and must be followed by a complete clause (subject + verb).
· Here, "Though the global financial crisis" is incomplete because it lacks a verb.
· The correct phrase should be "Though there was a global financial crisis, China's economy continues to grow."
Why Are the Other Options Incorrect? · (a) "to grow at an impressive rate." → Correct phrase; no grammatical error.
· (b) "china's economy continues" → Incorrect only in capitalization, but grammatically fine.
· (d) "global financial crisis," → Correct phrase.
Thus, the error is in option (c) "Though the", as it lacks a verb to form a complete thought.
