error detection Model Questions & Answers, Practice Test for ssc mts paper 1

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 :26

All the boys (a)/ returned back home (b)/ well in time for lunch. (c)/ No error (d)

Answer: (b)

'Return' itself conveys the meaning of 'coming back'. So, 'returned home' is the correct usage.

Answer: (d)

No error.

Question :28

When the teachers are on strike (a)/ and a notice to this effect is pasted on the college gate, (b)/ there is no sense to go there. (c)/ No error (d)

Answer: (c)

'To go there' is incorrect; 'in going there' is to be used in this sentence.

Question :29

Answer: (c)

In 'across with', two prepositions are placed together and this is a wrong usage. 'Came across a beggar' is the correct expression.
