Question

fix the two words that are used incorrectly.

in modern history, many governments have chosen to censure the media

rather than let journalists chose what content to publish.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  1. The first incorrect word is "censure". The context here means to control or restrict the media's content, but "censure" means to criticize strongly. The correct word should be "censor", which means to examine and remove or suppress unacceptable parts.
  2. The second incorrect word is "chose". In the structure "let journalists...", we need the base form of the verb after "let", and also, the tense context here requires the base form "choose" (or in the infinitive - related structure, "choose" is correct as the base form; "chose" is the past tense of "choose", which is inappropriate here. So we change "chose" to "choose". Also, the first verb "have chosen" is correct, but the word "censure" is wrong in meaning, so we correct "censure" to "censor" and "chose" to "choose".

Answer:

Change "censure" to "censor" and "chose" to "choose". The corrected sentence is: "In modern history, many governments have chosen to censor the media rather than let journalists choose what content to publish."
