Error analysis in the original sentence:
1. Noun (child) ---- pronoun used (their)
(Singular vs. Plural) --- The correct pronoun would have to be: he/ she/ his/ her etc.
2. wealth and position (nouns) - verb used "is"
grammatically- correct verb is "are".
POE:
* usage of pronoun "their" - eliminate: A, B and D
* Between C & E:
E- doesn't has verb for wealth and position - hence eliminated.
per our error analysis,:
Correct answer is - Option (C)
1. Noun (child) ---- pronoun used (their)

Let us see E again:
The standard Frances Hodgson Burnett plot is one in which a disadvantaged person, often a child, is resotred to the wealth and position of his natural birthright.
Subject-verb pairs are highlighted. E is incorrect since we are using incorrectly preposition - of .
We need- which - to modify nouns: wealth and position.
