SOLUTIONS:
S1.
Ans. (d)
Sol.
Here, error lies in part (D) of the sentence. ‘employee’ will be used instead of ‘employees’ to make the sentence grammatically correct and
contextually meaningful.
‘Employee’
will be plural because it is followed by ‘all’. Hence, option (d) is the right answer choice.
S2.
Ans. (d)
Sol.
Here, error lies in part (D) of the given sentence. ‘such’ will be used instead
of ‘so’ to make the sentence grammatically correct and contextually meaningful.
Hence, option (d) is the right
answer choice.
S3.
Ans. (c)
Sol.
Here, the error lies in part (C). Two negatives – ‘not initiate & no
initiate cannot go together in a single sentence. The correct formation will be
– ‘The employees are drawing salaries of 2012 and the management is not willing
to not initiate even preliminary talks on wage revision.’
Hence, option (c) is the right answer choice.
S4.
Ans. (b)
Sol.
Here, the error lies in part (B). ‘Government’ should be replaced with
“government’s” to make the sentence grammatically correct and contextually
meaningful. Hence, option (b) is the
right answer choice.
S5.
Ans. (c)
Sol.
Here, the error lies in part (C) of the given sentence. ‘Instead of’ should be
used in the place of ‘instead’ to make the sentence grammatically correct and
contextually meaningful. Hence, option
(c) is the right answer choice.
S6.
Ans. (e)
Sol.
The error is in part A of the sentence. “Aware
off” is the incorrect phrase, and it should be “aware of”. The correct sentence will be,
The
agency also seems to be aware of the impact damaged consumer trust can have on
personal health apps, and said in the notice that its eye is on the rest of the
industry as well.
Hence, option (e) is the right answer choice.
S7.
Ans. (c)
Sol.
The error is in part (C). The subject verb agreement of this sentence is not
correct. With plural noun ‘they’, plural verb “were” should be used instead of
“was”. The correct sentence will be,
They
visited the site to gather first hand information about the incident and they
were informed that the fire was not related to Dzukou fire.
Hence, option (c) is the right answer choice.
S8.
Ans. (c)
Sol.
There is no error in any part of the given sentence. Hence, option (c) is the right answer choice.
S9.
Ans. (d)
Sol.
The error is in part B of the sentence. To specify a day of the week,
preposition “on” should be used instead of “in” in the given sentence. The
correct sentence will be,
A
meeting of board of directors of the company is scheduled to be held on Tuesday
to consider and approve unaudited financial results of the company.
Hence, option (d) is the right answer choice.
S10.
Ans. (c)
Sol.
The error is in part B of the given sentence. stand in means somebody is
replacing someone on a temporary basis and this is not what the sentence
intends to mean. Here, the sentence implies that he has to figure out what he stands “for”. The correct phrasal verb
will be “stand for”.
The
correct sentence will be,
Once he
wins, he has to figure out what he stands for, gain the respect of his biggest
critic, while trying to get anything right for America’s second weirdest city.
Hence, option (c) is the right answer choice.
S11.
Ans. (d)
Sol.
Here the highlighted phrase will be replaced by the one given in option (d). The given phrase in bold is
incorrect since it is referring to an amount which is not specified but the
humanness in a robot was positive ‘only’
up to that amount only. An article ‘a’ should precede it which is missing in
the given statement.
S12.
Ans. (e)
Sol.
The highlighted phrase is correct and there is no need of any correction.
Hence, option (e) is the right
answer choice.
S13.
Ans. (b)
Sol.
The highlighted phrase will be replaced by the one given in option (b). There
are certain words which are always used in singular number and no plural form
is there for such words. Information is an example of such
word that is used only in singular number. Hence, ‘informations’ is
wrong usage in the given sentence. It is also always followed by singular verb
and not plural verb. Hence, option (b) is
the right answer choice.
S14.
Ans. (c)
Sol.
Here, the highlighted phrase will be replaced by the one given in option (c) as the sentence is in past
tense. Hence, option (c) is the
right answer choice.
S15.
Ans. (b)
Sol.
The highlighted phrase will be replaced by the one given in option (b). Hence, option (b) is the right answer choice.
