Solutions:

S1. Ans. (a)
Sol. In part (II): The original sentence uses “has” as the verb, which is singular (“has” is the third person singular form of the verb “to have”). However, since the subject is plural (“advancements”), the correct form of the verb should be “have,” which is the plural form.

S2. Ans. (b)
Sol. In part (I): The verb “begin” needs to be in the past tense to match the timeframe of the Industrial Revolution, which occurred in the late 18th century. Therefore, “begin” should be corrected to “began.”

S3. Ans. (c)
Sol. (II) “an glimpse” should be corrected to “a glimpse” to use the correct article before the noun “glimpse.”
(III) “connect” should be corrected to “connected” to maintain verb tense agreement with “once.”

S4. Ans. (c)
Sol. (II) “local sourced” should be corrected to “locally sourced” to properly modify the noun “ingredients.”

S5. Ans. (e)
Sol. The given sentence is error-free thus, no correction is required.
