Select the option that can replace the underlined phrase and make the sentence grammatically correct: The programme on TV was now shown the blurring faces of the inmates of the rehabilitation centre.

Question

Accepted Answer

The original phrase 'was now shown the blurring faces' is incorrect because 'was shown' is passive voice and does not fit the intended meaning. The correct active voice is 'was now showing'. Also, 'blurring faces' is incorrect; the correct adjective is 'blurred' to describe the faces. The subject 'The programme' is singular, so the verb should be singular 'was' not 'were'. The preposition 'of' is correct to indicate possession or association with the rehabilitation centre. Therefore, the correct phrase is 'was now showing the blurred faces of the inmates of the rehabilitation centre'.
