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.)
The mason will not (a)/do the work (b)/ except give the order. (c)/ No error (d)
Answer: (b)
'Any' is to be used in place of 'the' if 'except give the order' follows.
After making me wait for two agonising hours, (a)/ the great man called me in (b)/ and asked me what do I want. (c)/ No error (d)
Answer: (c)
The last part of the sentence should read 'and asked me what I wanted'.
I told him (a)/ that we enjoyed very much (b)/ at the party. (c)/ No error (d)
Answer: (b)
The past perfect tense has to be used instead of simple past in (b), as the action of enjoying was already over when I told him about it. ('We had enjoyed very much' instead of 'we enjoyed very much'.)
I shall go to Australia (a)/for higher studies (b)/ if you like it or not. (c)/ No error (d)
Answer: (c)
'Whether' should replace 'if'. 'Whether you like it or not' implies 'irrespective of'—that is, the action of going has already been decided upon. 'If', when used, makes the meaning of the sentence ambiguous. 'Whether... or not' is accepted usage; 'if... or not' is a construction that is not used.
He is one of those writers (a)/who has won acclaim (b)/ the world over. (c)/ No error (d)
Answer: (b)
The second part of the sentence refers to 'writers' and not to a particular person. So 'have' (the plural verb) should be used in place of 'has'.
