A test on Pron-nonuns
"It is recognized that the dangers of nuclear war are much graver than that of conventional warfare".
I thought this was the problem.
"It is recognized that the dangers of nuclear war are much graver than that of conventional warfare".
danger is plural as is are. But because the sentence starts It is, the word danger should be changed to danger and is.
KAPLAN, says that is all fine, and in fact its the second part of the sentence that needs to be corrected....
"It is recognized that the dangers of nuclear war are much graver than that of conventional warfare".
"that" to be replaced with those

I got confused reading your post.
you either write
"It is recognized that the dangers of nuclear war are much graver than the dangers (replace with those) of conventional warfare".
or
"It is recognized that the danger of nuclear war is much graver than the danger (replace with that) of conventional warfare".

your right, reading it again it does look confusing.
"It is recognized that the dangers of nuclear war are much graver than that of conventional warfare".
Let me restate:
Original Question.
"It is recognized that the dangers of nuclear war are much graver than that of conventional warfare".
I assumed the answer should be:-
"It is recognized that the danger of nuclear war is much graver than that of conventional warfare".
Because the sentence starts "It is", the word "dangers" should be changed to "danger" and "are" to "is", to keep it all singular.
KAPLAN, says that in fact its the second part of the sentence that needs to be corrected....
"It is recognized that the dangers of nuclear war are much graver than those of conventional warfare".
