In India today many of our intellectuals still talk in terms of the French revolution and the Rights of Man, not appreciating that playing much has happened since then. A. much might happen B. much had happened C. much has been happening D. No improvement

much might happen
much had happened
much has been happening
No improvement

The correct answer is C. much has been happening.

The sentence is about how many intellectuals in India still talk about the French Revolution and the Rights of Man, but they do not appreciate how much has changed since then. The word “playing” is incorrect in this context. It should be “happening.”

The other options are incorrect for the following reasons:

  • A. much might happen is not a grammatically correct sentence.
  • B. much had happened is in the past tense, but the sentence is about the present.
  • D. No improvement is incorrect because the sentence is grammatically incorrect.

The sentence should read: In India today many of our intellectuals still talk in terms of the French Revolution and the Rights of Man, not appreciating that much has been happening since then.
