Question : 38

The inexperienced trainee accidental turned off the lights during presentation.

a) Accidentally turned off

b) Has accidentally turn off

c) By accident turn on

d) Accidentally turning off

e) No correction required

Answer: (a)

In order to arrive at the correct option, let us consider all the options one by one. Option (a) – Has accidentally turn off. ‘Has’ takes V3 . Therefore ‘turn off ’ should have been ‘turned off’. Hence reject this option. Option (b) has ‘turn on’. We cannot replace ‘off’ with ‘on’.

Hence, this option also is incorrect. Option (c) ‘Accidentally turned off ’ is obsolutely correct. There is no need to justify option (d) any further.
