Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e., Age doesn’t seeming to.
- The erroneous part in the sentence is "doesn’t seeming." "Seeming" is an adjective that describes an appearance, but it is not the correct form to use in this sentence.
- The correct form to use here is the present participle "seem," which functions as a linking verb and links the subject "Age" to the predicate "to diminish."
The correct sentence would be:
Age doesn't seem to diminish our capacity to speak, write and learn new things.
