Idioms In Test Questions

[Page 15 of 26]
Answer the following sentence correction question, paying special attention to any idioms involved. When you're done, click Continue.

Due to the critical acclaim generated by his recent exhibit, the artist is currently regarded as one of the most promising sculptors in America.

the artist is currently regarded as
the artist is currently regarded to be
the artist currently regards himself to be
many regard the artist to be
currently is the artist regarded as

Focus on the preposition which follows the verb: is "regarded as" correct? Nope, the correct idiom is "regarded to be." Eliminate Choices (1) and (5).
Choice (4) has a misplaced modifier, so eliminate. The remaining options, Choices (2) and (3), differ in verb usage. Which is better: "the artist is currently regarded" or "the artist currently regards himself"? The first option is better since the second changes the meaning of the sentence. Eliminate Choice (3).
Choice (2) remains.
Due to the critical acclaim generated by his recent exhibit, the artist is currently regarded to be one of the most promising sculptors in America. Sure.
