Find the part of the sentence that contains an error: The coordinator called in (1)/ every applicant individually (2)/ but failed to bring forward (3)/ their real concerns. (4)/

Explanation

The correct option is (c). In part (3), the phrase “bring forward” is incorrectly used in the intended meaning. “Bring forward” usually means to propose, to present for discussion, or to move an event to an earlier time. It does not naturally mean “to reveal or express someone’s concerns” in this context. A more appropriate verb phrase would be “bring out” (to reveal) or “bring up” (to mention/raise). Hence, part (3) contains the error because the phrasal verb choice is incorrect. Correct sentence (one acceptable correction): The coordinator called in every applicant individually but failed to bring out their real concerns. Grammatical/usage rule used: Phrasal verbs must match the intended meaning; many phrasal verbs are idiomatic and cannot be substituted by near- sounding forms. Example: The interviewer tried to bring out the candidate’s true motivation. Booster tip: “Bring forward” = propose/advance; “bring up” = mention; “bring out” = reveal. So the correct answer is (c)
