Statement B is incorrect because Sanctum Sanctorum is spelt incorrectly as sanctorium- with an incorrect i after the r. Statement C is incorrect- use whether in the place of if. Use "if" to express a condition. You may borrow my car if you are careful with it. Use "whether" to express alternatives. She did not know whether to say yes or no. Statement D is incorrect because the definite article has to be used before 1930s- In the 1930s. Statement E is incorrect because the correct idiom would be sneaked into and not sneaked in. Hence, the correct answer is option 1.
Select the option that indicates the grammatically incorrect and inappropriate sentence(s).

OPTIONS
1) Only A 2) Only E 3) A and E 4) A and D 5) B, C and E
A is wrong because he was 97 is an independent clause and should be a separate sentence. I suspect E is also wrong but unable to find errors. Rest are correct.

Sentences B, C and D are correct. Sentence A is incorrect as he was 97 is an independent clause - it should have been a separate sentence, or it could have been separated from the rest of the sentence by a semi colon, but not by a comma. Sentence E is incorrect as the word sell off refers to the sale or disposal of something. The sentence states that the sell off has spread through the riskiest segments and ended up rallying. The sale of something cannot be rallied. Moreover, ended up rallying in high . debt is incorrect as it makes no logical sense and is grammatically incorrect. The correct sentence could be A selloff in bonds backed by subprime mortgages has spread through the riskiest segments of the credit markets, ending the rally in high-yield corporate bonds and commercial real-estate debt. Hence, the correct answer is option 3.
