Choose the option that has an error in the sentence. Recycling is now an essential measure and it is time for everyone in society to become more responsibility.
more responsibility.
This is an error-spotting item, so scan each segment for a grammar mismatch, focusing on word forms and the parts of speech they must take.
The linking verb 'become' describes a change of state and must be completed by an adjective (a subject complement), for example 'become responsible', 'become tired', 'become rich'.
The final segment reads 'to become more responsibility', where 'responsibility' is a noun, so 'become' is wrongly followed by a noun instead of an adjective.
The comparative 'more' also signals that a describing word (adjective) is expected, and the correct describing word here is the adjective 'responsible'.
The corrected phrasing is therefore 'for everyone in society to become more responsible'.
The other three segments are sound: 'Recycling is now an essential measure' and 'and it is time for everyone' and 'in society to become' all read correctly.
Hence the segment containing the error is more responsibility.
