Find the part of the sentence that contains an error
It seems as though the department is reluctant not because of the cost implications, but because that it might signal a policy shift they are not ready to make.
Answer और ExplanationAnswer and explanation
Answer: (C) but because that it might signal
Concept (Because That: Redundant Conjunction) Because स्वयं एक conjunction है और सीधे पूरे clause से पहले आता है, इसलिए उसके बाद 'that' जोड़ना अनावश्यक है। 'Because that' मानक अंग्रेज़ी में प्रयोग नहीं होता। 'Not because ... but because' की संरचना यहाँ पहले से सही है, अतः त्रुटि भाग (3) में है।
✓ सही वाक्य: It seems as though the department is reluctant not because of the cost implications, but because it might signal a policy shift they are not ready to make.
Concept (Because That: Redundant Conjunction) Because is itself a conjunction and is followed directly by a full clause, so adding 'that' is unnecessary. 'Because that' is not used in standard English. The parallel structure 'not because ... but because' is already correct here.
✓ Correct sentence It seems as though the department is reluctant not because of the cost implications, but because it might signal a policy shift they are not ready to make.
