Correct answer: B. dresses
- A. varieties
- B. dresses
- C. are
- D. shorts
Explanation
The error in the sentence is in option B. The correct word should be "dresses" instead of "dress."Explanation:The sentence talks about "varieties" of native dresses, which suggests multiple types or kinds of dresses.Therefore, the plural form "dresses" should be used to match the plural nature implied by "varieties."The corrected sentence would be: "Many different varieties of native dresses are on display at the Museum of Natural History, including children's play shorts."
