Suggested: Upcoming government exams
Correct Answer: (3)
Solution : The error lies in the third part of the sentence.
The adjective "long" should be replaced with "longer" to be used in a comparative degree to stand parallel with healthier. This makes the sentence grammatically accurate, as per parallelism.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "Thanks to medical research, our lives have become healthier and longer. "
