Answer is C.
In D "council" is not same as counsel.
The rest have pronoun errors. Anyone must complemented with him/her. People must be complemented with them.

Are these really 700+ questions? I seriously doubt it. They also don't seem to be GMAT styled.

I think it is basically a Idioms Question. I am confused between C and D.

Not an idiom question but a vocabulary question. :lol: Which is why I dont think this is a GMAT styled question.

Council : A group of people who come together to make a decision
Counsel: A Lawyer or a legal representative

Hey faltan, Anyone is singular and themselves are plural. Subject-Verb error.
Hence it should be people (Plural) and themselves (plural)

With Anyone themselves is not correct
legal council is incorrect, here we need legal counsel
Anyone is singular and them is pural
