Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
The sentence contains the misspelt word "benvolence", which is missing the second "e". The correct spelling is "benevolence" (meaning kindness or goodwill).
The remaining words in the sentence — "magnanimity", "philanthropic", and "alleviating" — are all spelt correctly, so the option that rectifies the error is "benevolence".
