common errors mcq Model Questions & Answers, Practice Test for ibps clerk prelims 2024

Directions:

Read each sentence to find out whether there is any error in it. The error, if any, will be in one part of the sentence. Mark the number of that part with error as your answer. If there is no error, mark (d). (Ignore errors of punctuation, if any.)

Question :11

The venue of the examination (a)/ is one mile further up (b)/ the hill. (c)/ No error (d)

Answer: (b)

It should be 'farther' (comparative of 'far' meaning 'to or at a greater distance') and not 'further' (meaning 'at a greater distance'; 'in addition') here. This is because the notion of distance is more prominent in the given sentence.

Question :12

Last summer, he went (a)/ to his uncle's village (b)/ and enjoyed very much. (c)/ No error (d)

Answer: (c)

The verb 'enjoyed' needs an object. Here we need to put 'himself after the verb 'enjoyed'.

Question :13

In spite of the doctor's stern warning, (a)/ he continued taking (b)/ sugar in his tea. (c)/ No error (d)

Answer: (d)

No error.

Question :14

The party chief made it a point to state that (a)/ the prime minister and the union home minister should also come (b)/ and see what his party men had seen. (c)/ No error (d)

Answer: (d)

No error.

Question :15

After opening the door (a)/ we entered into the room (b)/ next to the kitchen. (c)/ No error (d)

Answer: (b)

One enters 'another' room; not 'into another' room. 'Enter' itself means 'go in' or 'come in'; so 'into' is not necessary here.
