**Q:** Tariffs (A) has imported (B) higher China (C) on 603 items imposed (D) from the US.

Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. The word 'Tariffs' (A) is a plural noun, but it is incorrectly followed by 'has' (singular verb). This is grammatically incorrect.

2. The word 'China' (C) is a singular noun and should be followed by 'has' (B) to maintain subject-verb agreement.

3. Therefore, swapping (A) and (C) corrects the subject-verb agreement.

4. Next, 'imported' (B) is a past participle verb, and 'imposed' (D) is also a past participle verb. However, in the sentence, 'imposed' fits better after 'China' to indicate the action China took.

5. Swapping (B) and (D) places the verbs correctly in the sentence.

6. After these swaps, the sentence reads:

_'China has imposed higher tariffs on 603 items imported from the US.'_

which is grammatically and contextually correct.

**Answer:** (d) Both A-C and B-D
