What is sentence correction?

Sentence correction or sentence improvement is a type of grammatical practice where a sentence is given with a word or a phrase that requires grammatical changes or improvement.

Now,

  • Here, in the part D of the sentence, we can see that the tense is wrongly used; "had been" is used only when something has begun in the past and is still being done which is clearly incorrect in the given sentence.
  • Thus, Part D of the sentence needs correction; correction would be: " she was the first"

Hence, Option C is the correct option, i.e., When Marie Curie shared the Nobel Prize for Physics with two other scientists - her husband Pierre Curie and Henri Bacquerel - she had been (Option C) the first women to win the prize.
