Explanation:
- The given sentences contain a variety of errors and these errors include word-choice, article, subject-verb agreement, punctuational, and prepositional error.
- Sentences 1, 8, and 10 contain word-choice error as the meaning doesn't go as per the context that misleads the readers. Thus, the words vine, bale, and carriers would be changed to wine, bail, and careers to make the sentence meaningful.
- The second, third, and seventh sentences contain an error of inappropriate use of articles 'a' which should be replaced with 'an' and 'the' as there are a vowel sound and superlative degree of adjective.
- The fourth and tenth sentence contain a subject-verb agreement error and 'has' needs to be replaced with 'have' as the subject is plural.
- Fifth sentence misses a question mark as the sentence puts up a question.
- The other sentence contain a prepositional error that incorrectly links the noun to the other part of the sentence. Thus, 'in' and 'by' in the 6th and 8th sentences would be replaced by 'of' and 'to' respectively.
