Correct
1. The decision that has just been agreed with by the committee members should serve as a basis for their work in the years to come.
On my book, it says the underlined part should be corrected: agreed to. I am just wondering what's the difference between the two. When do I use one or the other?
2. Flints found in the region extending from the Nile Valley to the highlands of eastern Iraq attests to the presence of people there as long ago as one hundred thousand years.
Well, it's a long sentence and I can't really break it down to pieces. It says the underlined part is wrong. Why? How should it be corrected? Also, the phrase found in sounds awkward to me. I mean if the sentence is like: Flints found in the region ...., there was .... Then it makes more sense. I hope you can analyze it for me. Thank you very much.
