Question : Select the option that will improve the underlined part of the given sentence. In case no improvement is needed, select 'No improvement required'.
In the nineteenth century, many new ideas about education and learning were being emerged.
Option 1: was emerging
Option 2: have emerging
Option 3: No improvement required
Option 4: emerged
Correct Answer: emerged
Solution : The fourth option is the correct choice.
Explanation : The phrase "were being emerged" is not grammatically correct. In English, when expressing the emergence or occurrence of something, the passive voice is not typically used with the verb "emerge". Instead, the active voice with the simple past tense "emerged" is appropriate for conveying the intended meaning.
Therefore, the correct sentence would be: "In the nineteenth century, many new ideas about education and learning emerged. "
