Answer 1

Answer: (C)

rank high in the appraisal of

Answer 2

The error is in the phrase "appraisal for competent critics." and the sentence is trying to convey that the critics are the ones making the appraisal. In this case, the correct preposition is "of," meaning the critics are the ones doing the evaluation.
The correct option is (C): rank high in the appraisal of competent critics.
