Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is: D. No error
The sentence is grammatically correct. The phrase “As much as I admire him for his sterling qualities” is an adverbial clause that modifies the verb “cannot excuse.” The phrase “being unfair to his friends” is a gerund phrase that functions as the object of the preposition “for.”
The sentence could be rewritten as follows:
I admire him for his sterling qualities, but I cannot excuse him for being unfair to his friends.
