These are what I think.. we should wait for others too

Your numbering seems messed up.

I agree with MsSue. Your numbers do not match the words that would go there. You are off by one.

18. d. no error

To determine the correct answer, read the underlined part of the sentence: "world-famous mathematician." It appears that there is nothing wrong with this phrase, as both "world-famous" and "mathematician" are functioning correctly in the sentence. Therefore, the correct answer is "d. no error."

19. c. in 1901, and
To determine the correct answer, read the underlined part of the sentence: "in 1901 and." This phrase seems to be missing a comma after "1901" to separate it from the conjunction "and." Therefore, the correct answer is "c. in 1901, and."

20. d. no error
To determine the correct answer, read the underlined part of the sentence: "was however also." It seems that there is nothing wrong with this phrase, as it correctly combines the words "was," "however," and "also" in the sentence. Therefore, the correct answer is "d. no error."

21. d. no error
To determine the correct answer, read the underlined part of the sentence: "relativity and won." It seems that there is nothing wrong with this phrase, as it correctly combines the words "relativity" and "won" in the sentence. Therefore, the correct answer is "d. no error."

22. d. no error
To determine the correct answer, read the underlined part of the sentence: "theories Einstein." It seems that there is nothing wrong with this phrase, as "theories" is correctly describing "Einstein" in the sentence. Therefore, the correct answer is "d. no error."

23. a. Switzerland, Prague,
To determine the correct answer, read the underlined part of the sentence: "Switzerland Prague." It appears that there is a missing comma between "Switzerland" and "Prague" to separate the two places. Therefore, the correct answer is "a. Switzerland, Prague,"
