Carefully reread the following sentence: “When Jane Austen wrote Pride and Prejudice she published the text anonymously because during the time period in which she lived female authors are not respected in society.” Which word in the sentence above is in the inappropriate verb tense? [L.8.1.d] A. wrote B. published C. lived D. are

Sagot :

Hey there! The answer would be D because the paragraph is talking in past tense about the author until this point. It should be "female authors were not respected" instead of are. Hope this helped! :)
