Hello,

There is an error in the second sentence of the test paragraph. The correct plural pronoun at the beginning of the sentence is "They" rather than "The". Could you please double-check the error?

Thank you.

Best wishes,

Thank you again, Bhikkhu. I have repaired that sentence and others in the test.
