Answer:

A). Emigrate should be immigrate.

Explanation:

As per the question, option A i.e. 'emigrate should be immigrate' displays the edit that most appropriately rectifies the error in the sentence. <u>The sentence contains an error of word-choice which proposes an inappropriate, confusing, and misleading meaning to it</u>. The word 'emigrate' implies 'to leave one's country or native place' which does not go with the context of the sentence. Thus, it needs to be replaced with 'immigrate' which means 'to move to a place for settling there' as per the given context cues. This rectification assists in conveying a complete and accomplished thought and hence, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.
