  • Directions:(1-5) In the given questions, a sentence has been broken into four parts. The last part is correct and has been highlighted while one of the other parts contain an error. Select the part which contains the error and mark it as your answer. If all the parts are grammatically correct, mark E as your answer.

    1. Question

    Emily claims that she’s not (A) / proactive about celebrating New Years (B) / and the most they do is visit a Chinese (C) / restaurant on that day with friends and (D) / other members of the community (E).

    Ans:5
    The sentence is correct and has no errors.

  • 2. Question

    In the book, Hawking explains (A) / this phenomenon and then (B) / writes of another that Einstein’s (C) / theory also predict that time (D) / slows down near massive objects (E).

    Ans:3
    The concerned subject here is “Einstein’s theory” which is singular. Hence, we need the singular form of the verb “predicts” in the D part. Option C will be the correct answer.

  • 3. Question

    Major banks including JP Morgan (A) / and Bank of America banned crypto (B) / purchases on their credit cards, while the (C) / Securities and Exchange Commission (D) / stepped up cryptocurrency oversight (E).

    Ans:5
    The sentence is grammatically correct, coherent and free of error, which makes E the right answer.

  • 4. Question

    The World Bank, in it’s bi-annual India (A) / Development Update released recently, said the (B) / introduction of GST has been accompanied by (C) / state administrations experiencing (D) / disruptions in initial days after GST’s introduction (E).

    Ans:4
    The possessive pronoun “its” need to replace the contraction “it’s” (it is) in part A. Option D will be the correct answer.

  • 5. Question

    Coming in later not only (A) / limits the opportunities to (B) / bat by more established batsmen, (C) / but also robs you of an (D) / opportunity to build an innings (E).

    Ans:3
    An incorrect preposition has been used in part C. The sense that the sentence is trying to give is that if a batsman comes down the order to bat, he loses the chance of batting “with” more established batsmen. Option C will be the correct answer.

    Directions:(6-10) Read the given sentences to find out whether there are any grammatical/contextual errors in them.

  • 8. Question

    In the excitement of the storm, (A)/ everyone had, for the moment, (B)/ forgot the even more (C)/ terrible dangerous that they were in. (D)

    A, B – no error. C – the past participle form of the verb ‘forgotten’ should be used in place of the simple past tense verb ‘forgot’, as the present perfect tense construction ‘has + verb’ has been used.
