No correction required

Answer : Option D
Explanation :

In the highlighted phrase, use of ’rise’ is incorrect instead it should be ’raise’ because If you raise something, it means that you elevate it - you move it up or lift it to a higher level and If something rises, it means that it elevates itself - it goes up itself. No external force is needed. Also, difference between them is that raise is transitive (it must have a direct object) and rise is intransitive (no direct object). Hence, the correct answer choice would be option 4.
