The beautiful painted landscape of hills is a perfect gift for my hubby. A. is a perfect B. of hills C. The beautiful painted landscape D. gift for my hubby E. No Error
Solution: C
The Correct answer is option C i.e. The beautiful painted landscape
In the sentence, the error is in the use of the word ‘beautiful’.
The sentence needs an adverb before ‘painted landscape’ and thus it should be ‘beautifully’ not ‘beautiful’.
The correct sentence will be-
The beautifully painted landscape of hills is a perfect gift for my hubby.

Solution: D
‘Yet’ denotes that anything that we anticipated has occurred or has not occurred. The perfect tense is used because it describes a specific event. It’s typically placed at the end of a sentence. Already denotes that something occurred sooner than anticipated. Since the action (mend) is done yet, we cannot use it. This example uses the verb ‘have’ both as an auxiliary and main verb. The main verb is followed by an object (the door). Hence the correct answer is D.

For Sam, the beginning of the exam season was marked by a messy table and a whiteboard scribbled behind recognition. E. All are correct.
Solution: A
Statement B: The error lies in the use of the singular verb ‘is’ to relate to three nouns connected by the conjunction ‘and’ (when two or more nouns are connected by the conjunction ‘and’, it necessitates the use of a plural verb), causing discord in the subject-verb agreement.
Statement C: The error lies in the use of the adjective ‘pensive’ to qualify the preceding verb ‘sat’. Replacing it with the adverb ‘pensively’ will make the sentence grammatically correct and contextually meaningful.
Statement D: The error lies in the use of the preposition ‘behind’, meaning at the back of something, instead of the preposition ‘beyond’, meaning further away. Thus, Option “A” is the correct response.

In the given question, a sentence is divided into four parts. There are errors in three parts. Choose the part which does not have an error. If all the four parts are correct, mark E, i.e. ‘All are correct’ as the answer. A miles further on we (A)/ turned abruptly of the highway (B)/ and the Range Rover sped into (C)/ the desert leaving landmarks ahead. (D)
Solution: C
A: “miles” is plural and “a” before it is a grammatical error. Since, we are talking about distances, it should be “a few miles”.
B: it should be “off” instead of “of” so that the phrasal verb “turn off”, which means a road that leaves another road to go in a different direction.
D: while traveling landmarks are left behind, not ahead.
In the given question, a sentence is divided into four parts. There are errors in three parts. Choose the part which doesn’t have an error. If all the four parts are correct, mark E, i.e. ‘All are correct’ as the answer. One hundred and fifteen acres for (A)/ hiking and cycling trails, along by fishing and kayaking (B)/ opportunities is available (C)/ at this outdoor attraction year-round. (D)
Solution: D
Part A is incorrect because of the preposition ‘for’. ‘Of’ should be used instead.
Part B is incorrect because of the preposition ‘by’ after ‘along’. ‘With’ should be used after ‘along’ to render the correct meaning.
Part C is incorrect because the subject-verb agreement is violated. When the connector ‘along with’ is used to combine two subjects, the verb agrees with the subject mentioned first. The subject in the sentence is hiking and cycling trails, which is plural, hence, the verb must be plural i.e. ‘are’.
In the given question, a sentence is divided into four parts. There are errors in three parts. Choose the part which doesn’t have an error. If all four parts are correct, mark E, i.e. ‘All are correct’ as the answer. After receiving a considerably (A)/ number of calls each day (B), the district attorney’s office have (C)/ decided to reopen an investigation. (D)
Solution: B
Part A requires an adjective while an adverb is used. ‘Considerably’ must be replaced with ‘considerable’ to render the correct meaning.
Part C violates the subject-verb agreement. Here the subject is ‘district attorney’s office’ which is singular and hence the verb must be singular. Therefore, ‘have’ must be replaced with ‘has’ to make it correct.
Part D is incorrect because of the incorrect determiner ‘an’. The sentence talks about a particular investigation, therefore, the definite article ‘the’ must be used instead of ‘an’.
In the given question, a sentence is divided into four parts. There are errors in three parts. Choose the part which does not have an error. If all four parts are correct, mark E, i.e. ‘All are correct’ as the answer.
We could have (A)/ had the longer holiday, (B)/ if we didn’t spend so (C)/ many money on the house. (D)
Solution: A
Part B is incorrect due to the wrong determiner ‘the’. It should be replaced with the article ‘a’ to make the segment correct.
Part C is incorrect because of the incorrect usage of the tense. The sentence is a type 3 conditional sentence. In Type 3 sentences, the speaker looks back from the present to a past time and event. The speaker talks about what might have happened but did not, either because the wrong thing was done or because nothing was done. The main clause uses would, could, or might + have + the past participle of a main verb. The ‘if-clause’ uses the past perfect tense. Therefore, ‘didn’t spend’ must be replaced with ‘hadn’t spent’.
Part D is incorrect because of the usage of ‘many’. We use much if the noun is non-countable (e.g., water, sand) and ‘many’ if the noun is countable (e.g., oranges, children). Therefore, ‘much’ must be used instead of ‘many’.
