Correct Answer: are very admired


Solution : The first option is the correct choice.

The phrase "are very admired" contains a grammatical error due to the incorrect placement of the adverb very .

The adverb very is usually used to intensify adjectives or other adverbs, but it's not commonly used to modify the verb admired . Instead, in this context, a different adverb such as greatly or highly is more suitable to express a high degree of admiration or appreciation for her concerts.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: Her concerts are greatly admired by foreigners.
