Each of our students pay their tuition fee at the beginning of the month. A. Student pay their B. Students pays their C. Students pays his D. No improvement
The correct answer is option C
• ‘students pay their’ is grammatically incorrect.
• Here, ‘each’ is singular so ‘their’ is wrong because it refers to a plural subject.

• ‘Students’ is plural. According to the subject-verb agreement, ‘pays’ must be correct.
“None of the girl deserve” to be selected for this award. A. None of the girl deserves B. no improvement required C. None of the girls are deserving D. None of the girls deserves
The correct answer is option D
• The error lies in Part (None of the girl deserve) of the sentence.
• The structure of the given sentence is incorrect.
• In the underlined part ‘None’ is an indefinite pronoun and used to indicate not a single person or object among more than two persons or objects.
• So we have to change the word ‘girl’ from singular to plural ‘girls.’
As the pronoun ‘None’ is a third-person singular number we have to add ‘s’ after the verb i.e., ‘deserves.’
• Therefore, the use of ‘None of the girl deserve’ in the sentence should be replaced with ‘None of the girls deserves’ to make it grammatically correct.

Example: Rajesh drinks milk every day.
• Therefore, we will apply this structure here for getting the perfect grammatical sentence.
Correct Sentence : Rani carries the bundle of clothes in a bucket to dry them out in the sun every day.
