Answer: Option B
Explanation:
The first part of the sentence says something positive about underwater archaeology (has huge potential) and the second part brings out its drawbacks. It is a contradiction and hence it is apt to use a conjunction which brings out this contrast. The conjunction 'but' has to replace 'as'. Also the idea stated is given as a fact. The first part is in simple past and the second part should also be in the simple past. The verb 'is' has to replace 'could be' which suggests a supposition. The correction therefore is 'but it is a time-consuming'.
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
It is 'more than 10 times the width of' something else. It has to take a noun and not an adjective. The comparison is between the width of the dark matter and the width of the visible portion of the galaxy. The comparison is brought out with the use of 'more than'. Hence the use of 'as wide as' or 'wider than' becomes absurd. The correction is '10 times of the width of'.
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
There are two sentences combined using a conjunction. The first clause is 'studies have revealed'. The rest forms another noun clause. What have the studies revealed? They have revealed that. Hence the appropriate conjunction is 'that'. This clause should have one main verb which is 'asked'. People are asked to come up with reasons in support of an idea. 'The more they are asked, the less they' is the appropriate way of framing this. The correction therefore is 'that the more reasons people are asked, the less value they'.
