The correct answer is D. No correction required.
The sentence “As far as good schooling is concerned, none except few privileged people can afford it for their children” is grammatically correct. The word “except” is used to introduce a list of exceptions, and the word “few” means “a small number of.” In this sentence, the word “except” is followed by the phrase “few privileged people,” which means that only a small number of privileged people can afford good schooling for their children.
The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the meaning of the sentence. Option A, “none but few,” is incorrect because the word “but” is used to introduce a contrast, and there is no contrast in this sentence. Option B, “none more than a few,” is incorrect because the word “more” is used to indicate a greater number, and the sentence is about a small number of people. Option C, “none except a few,” is incorrect because the word “a” is used to indicate a specific number, and the sentence is about a general group of people.
