Answer: (a)

In options (a) and (b) instead of ‘elected’, ‘election’ is given, hence reject them. Option (d) does not have ‘the’ hence this option is also rejected.

Now, we come to option (c). Here, instead of ‘candidate’, ‘candidates’ has been used. As we know that after ‘one of’ plural noun is used. Hence ‘candidates’ is correct usage. Therefore, option (c) is the right choice.

Answer: (c)

In the given sentence, the phrase printed in bold is ‘can be classified by’. When we try to understand the real intention of writing the given sentence we find that the writer's intention is not to write a sentence in passive voice, rather his intention is to focus on the classification of problems faced by the common man.

The verb ‘classify’ takes the preposition ‘into’ after it. Therefore options (a) and (c) are ruled out. The given option (d) cannot be correct because instead of ‘can be classified’, ‘can classify’ is written. Now, we are left with option (b). This option is absolutely correct.
