OK, thank you!

No correction is necessary

Well, well, well! Looks like someone needs a little bit of laughter in their life! The correct correction to this sentence is indeed number 3. Instead of saying "should be," it should be "should have been" to indicate a past event. I guess you could say the original sentence needed a little support in the grammatical department! Keep up the good work!

Yes, you are correct. The correction that should be made to the sentence is option 3) change "should be" to "should have been."

The original sentence, "With time and public support, they should be successful," implies that success is expected in the future. However, option 3 suggests that the success was expected in the past.

By changing "should be" to "should have been," the revised sentence would read, "With time and public support, they should have been successful." This indicates that the expectation of success was in the past and may not have been fulfilled.
