Model Answer

| Error | Correction |
|-------|------------|
| maintain | maintaining |

(The preposition 'in' must be followed by a gerund/verb+ing form.)

Explanation

After a preposition (here, 'in'), the verb must take the gerund form (-ing). So 'maintain' → 'maintaining'. Examiners award the 1 mark only if both the error and its correction are clearly identified.
