(I) With a population with 1.3 billion, China is the second largest
(II) economy and is increasingly played an important and
(III) influential role in development and in the global economy

Options

A. Only II
B. Only III
C. Only I
D. Both II and III

Answer

D

Explanation

The error is in part III only where the word 'influencing' is incorrect and needs to be replaced with 'influential' to make the sentence correct. The correct adjective should be placed here.
