Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4i.e. A myriad of possibilities unfolds when an artist embarks on a journey of creative experimentation
Error concept: Incorrect article usage and determiners
What is wrong: The phrase “The myriad of possibilities” or using the artist changes the general meaning. A myriad is correct when referring to many possibilities in general, and an artist is appropriate when speaking generically.
Grammatical concept: A myriad of is treated as singular when followed by a singular verb and is used with the indefinite article a for general statements.
Incorrectness of the concept in context: Using the myriad or the artist would make the sentence specific, whereas the sentence intends to speak generally.
How to correct: Use A myriad of possibilities and an artist.
Correct phrase/ correction: A myriad of possibilities unfolds when an artist embarks on a journey of creative experimentation
Final sentence: A myriad of possibilities unfolds when an artist embarks on a journey of creative experimentation.
Hence, the chosen option is correct.
