Hello nisthagupta28,
We hope this finds you well.
Having gone through the question and your query, we believe we can resolve your doubts.
1) There is no subject-verb disagreement in Option C; the use of the bossy verb "must" indicates that the subjunctive mood is preferable here, and “Bossy verb (“requires”) + "base form of verb” (“bear” in this sentence)” is a correct subjunctive mood construction.
2) Yes; the clause "there are several important differences between them that must be borne in mind" is a grammatically correct construction, but it is inferior to the more concise and direct version used in Option B - "several important differences must be borne in mind" - as it is in the passive voice.
We hope this helps.
All the best!

Hello Experts,

E) with the two concepts of market economy and laissez faire, one must bear in mind several important differences
Why E is incorrect?
I think "between" and "with" conveys the same meaning. Then Why E is incorrect?
Is "2 concepts of" incorrect in E?
What tense is "Must be + past participle"?

Hello Sneha2021,
We hope this finds you well.
Having gone through the question and your queries, we believe we can resolve your doubts.
1. The construction of the phrase "overlap with the two concepts of market economy and laissez faire", incorrectly conveys that some unnamed third entity has an overlap with the two concepts of market economy and laissez faire; the intended meaning is that the two concepts of market economy and laissez faire themselves have an overlap, as conveyed through the phrase "overlap between the two concepts of market economy and laissez faire".
2. No, the phrase "two concepts of" is correct, though needlessly wordy.
3. "must be + past participle" is the simple present tense in passive form; the active verb in this phrase is "be".
We hope this helps.
All the best!
