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 (e). (Ignore errors of punctuation, if any.)

Question :21

He is neither in (a)/ favour of arms race (b)/ or in favour of (c)/ simple nuclear disarmament. (d)/ No error (e)

Answer: (c)

It should be 'nor', and not 'or', 'Neither... nor' form correlative or corresponsive conjunctions. The first part of the conjunction pair comple- ments the other part.

Question :22

What really agonise them (a)/ is the presence of (b)/ an unwanted and unscrupulous (c)/ member on the panel. (d)/ No error (e)

Answer: (a)

As we are referring to 'the presence' of a member, a singular verb ('agonises') should be used.

Question :23

Whenever we have a puncture, (a)/ she just sits in the car (b)/ and reads a book (c)/ while I changed the wheel. (d)/ No error (e)

Answer: (d)

The present tense form of the verb should be used throughout the sentence: 'change' and not 'changed'.

Question :24

My brother had (a)/ just come from abroad and (b)/ he seems to have (c)/ enjoyed his trip very much. (d)/ No error (e)

Answer: (a)

The present perfect tense should be used ('has' just come) and not the past perfect ('had' just come) in order to maintain tense uniformity.

Question :25

He put his hand (a)/ into his pocket and was (b)/ astonished when he found (c)/ that his wallet is not there. (d)/ No error (e)

Answer: (d)

The past tense verb 'was' should replace 'is' for tense uniformity (past tense).
