Which of the phrases (A), (B), (C) and (D) given below should replace the phrase given in ‘’bold’’ in the following sentence to make the sentence grammatically correct ? If the sentence is correct as it is and no correction is required, mark (E) as the answer.
Managers frequently encounter situations where they need ‘’to help others solved’’ problems.
'Need help' must be used when the subject needs help. For example, 'I need help to complete my homework'. Here the sentence indicates that managers are helping others. Thus, infinitive, 'to help' must be used. Since the sentence is set in simple present tense, a simple infinitive should be used. The right sentence should read 'Managers frequently encounter situations where they need to help others solve problems'. Answer is C.
