Explanation:

- The sentence describes actions taken by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman in response to specific events.

- Option 1 (A-B): Exchanging "unprecedented" with "learned" is not logical. "Unprecedented" describes action, while "learned" describes receiving knowledge from experiences.

- Option 2 (A-C): Switching "unprecedented" with "brave" doesn't fit. "Unprecedented effort" makes sense, not "brave effort." Similarly, a "global health crisis" can be "unprecedented" but not "brave," as bravery is a trait of individuals.

- Option 3 (A-D): Exchanging "unprecedented" with "ensuing" is incorrect. "Ensuing" refers to something following, while "unprecedented" refers to never experienced before.

- Option 4 (B-E): Interchanging "learned" with "track" would not work grammatically or logically.

- Option 5 (B-D): Switching "learned" with "ensuing" doesn't fit the context. "Lessons learned" is a common expression.

After reviewing each option, none of the interchanges make the sentence more correct than it is.
