CHOICES

Choice-A

The principals' objections to the holiday were moral in nature. He did not want to grant the holiday, even though it fell on a weekend. The sentence is grammatically incorrect due to a confusion in the use of "principals'." The possessive form "principals'" suggests a plural possessive, indicating objections from multiple principals.

Wrong No change

Choice-B

The principals objections to the holiday were moral in nature. He did not want to grant the holiday, even though it fell on a weekend. The sentence is grammatically incorrect. The term "principals" likely refers to school administrators, but it should be "principal’s" if referring to the objection of a singular principal so there’s a lack of clarity in the sentence.

Correct principals

Choice-C

The principal’s objections to the holiday were moral in nature. He did not want to grant the holiday, even though it fell on a weekend. The sentence is grammatically correct in conveying the principal’s moral objections to the holiday. “Principal’s” is the correct singular possessive form. The sentence structure is clear and logically connected, and “even though it fell on a weekend” shows proper contrast.

Wrong principal’s

Choice-D

The principal objections to the holiday were moral in nature. He did not want to grant the holiday, even though it fell on a weekend. The sentence contains grammatical errors. It should be "principal’s" instead of "principal" to indicate possession.
