Explanation: Preposition "to" is missing before the verb. When we add 'to' it adds meaning to the sentence.
Correct (23): In 1990 Nick won …………………… for his bravery and perseverance.
Explanation: Present verb is not used with past times.
Correct (24): And once I was in a car …………………. looking at me interestingly.
