The error in this sentence is A. Why?

The error in this sentence is B. Why? "..occured in Victoria recently.." so this sentence should be in present tensee? "when a cougar is spied freely.." <-- doesn't "is" mean present tense? " if i used "was", then it would mean past tense? So why is B wrong?

We use 'whom' directly after a preposition.

[Francois]

1: I don't know
2: ...prior to our disembarking...
3: prey
4: strange sentence! ...the tourists instead of... (not sure of this one)
5: Scientists, (missing comma)
6: was spied. You need a past tense, because of 'such a time'.

Why is B incorrect? Is the qutation marks incorrect? If so, what is wrong with it?

2: ...and using...
3: at a site

"...and may switch to the sport full-time if he ever tires of bikes." <--is this correct? or should this be "ever gets tired of bikes."?

[Francois]

Both are fine.

FRC

[jack]

"...and may switch to the sport full-time if he ever tires of bikes." <--what does the sentence mean if i add "gets" between "ever" and "tires"? How come i don't need "gets" for this sentence and it makes sense?

What is wrong with C?

What is wrong with C?

[Tdol]

Tire- active verb
Get tired = verb + past participle

They both add up to the same meaning in this sentence.

[Francois]

1: ...remain (no s)...
2: "most gravest" can't be right ("gravest")
