Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: It seems evidents
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:
The item tests correct adjective form and number. “Evident” is an adjective; “evidence” is a noun. “Evidents” is not a valid form. Precision with parts of speech is central to error-spotting.
Given Data / Assumptions:
Concept / Approach:
Use “evident” (adjective) to modify or complete “seems.” Do not pluralize adjectives in English. If a noun is needed, use “evidence,” but then the structure would change (e.g., “There is evidence that …”).
Step-by-Step Solution:
Verification / Alternative check:
Paraphrase: “Apparently, the visits … were not frequent.” The adjective slot after “seems” fits “evident,” not a noun or a pluralized form.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
Common Pitfalls:
Confusing adjective–noun pairs (evident/evidence); incorrectly pluralizing adjectives.
Final Answer:
It seems evidents
