Match the mistakes
Guys, help me please
match the type of mistakes with the sentence containing it. One type of mistakes is extra.
21. The monarchy, as an institution, need the interest of the public in the personalities of the Royal Family.
22. And for the Press, public interest is it’s livelihood: a resource which it must mine, competitively, in order to survive.
23. Public interest is an undulating, slippery, instable substance, and it is also ambivalent: a beautiful princess, for example, evokes different shades of emotion.
24. There are the bright ones: admiration, loyalty, affection indeed love.
25. And there are dark ones lower down, beneath the surface of the other: a desire to deface, to hurt, to humiliate.
26. Both sets of feelings are part of this same resource, known like public interest.
27. And although they are part of it, they are going to be tapped sooner or later at some level, by a free Press.
28. There comes a time when a writer, or an editor, decides that adulation has had its day, because people are tired of hearing her referred as 'beautiful'.
A agreement between subject and predicate
B missing preposition
C substitution of a pronoun with a clause
D wrong adverb
E wrong conjunction
F wrong pronoun
G wrong prefix
H wrong preposition
I wrong tense
