Q:

A) The Trump administration is intensifying its effort to crack down the so-called sanctuary cities that refuse to comply with federal immigration authorities. B) Efforts were intensified by the Trump administration to crack down the sanctuary cities that refused to comply with federal immigration authorities.
C) The so-called sanctuary cities that refused to abide by the federal immigration authorities will be cracked down by the intensified efforts of the Trump administration. D) Federal immigration authorities must be complied into by sanctuary cities if the efforts of the Trump Administration must be intensified.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Federal immigration authorities must be complied into by sanctuary cities if the efforts of the Trump Administration must be intensified.

Explanation:

We have to find the incorrect statement. All the sentences except D have been correctly structured. In option D, the phrase ‘complied into by’ is incorrect. You "comply with" a rule or a law and not by cities.

Q:

Four statements are given below at A, B, C and D. There may be some errors in the given statement(s). The incorrect statement is your answer.

A) Racing for the bus, her bag flew open and all the documents were lost. B) As she raced for the bus, her bag flew open making the documents lost.
C) Racing for the bus, her bag flung open and all the documents were lost. D) The documents were lost, when racing for the bus, her bag flung open.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer:

Explanation:

Options A, C and E in the absence of a proper subject add the ‘bag’ automatically to the verb ‘racing for the bus’. So, it does not make any sense as it would mean that the bag is racing for the bus. Option B is incorrect because of the fragment ‘making the documents lose’. Option D doesn't convey the proper meaning.
