In each sentence below there are four underlined words or phrases marked (a), (b), (c) and (d). Identify the word or phrase that has not been correctly used in the sentence. The letter (a), (b), (c) or (d) against the incorrect word or phrase would be the answer.
Most students (a)/ of the college union (b)/ rejects the chairman's (c)/ demand that they return to classes. (d)

When Columbus discovered (a)/ America, he thought that he arrived in (b)/ India, so he (c)/ called the people he met 'Indians'. (d)
Answer: (b)

To implement (a)/ the new laws may not be (b)/ easy but if everyone does (c)/ their part, (d)/ one will succeed.
Answer: (d)
It should be 'one's part' as 'one' is the pronoun that follows.
She would have asked (a)/ Sita to leave her room that very minute (b)/ if her brother would have been (c)/ in the house that day. (d)
Answer: (c)
'Would have been' should be replaced by 'had been' because a supposition referring to the past is stated.
The energy, intelligence and (a)/ compassion of the volunteers (b)/ who aided in the search (c)/ effort was remarking. (d)
Answer: (d)
'Remarkable' (adj. meaning 'noteworthy') is to be used in place of 'remarking' (v.). The verb 'was' is correct as here we must consider 'energy', 'intelligence' and 'compassion' of the volunteers as a single unit to be followed by a singular verb.
