Question 5
1 / -0

Identify the part having an error. If no part has an error, mark (5).

A
Due to

B
a misunderstanding,

C
I did not

D
meet him

Solution

'because of' or 'on account of'

The adjective phrase, 'Due to a misunderstanding' appears to modify 'I', but in reality, 'I' is not what is due to misunderstanding.
'Because of' creates an adverbial phrase, which correctly modifies the verb after the comma 'did not meet'.

Identify the part having an error. If no part has an error, mark (5).

A
I

B

C
a lots of friends

Replace 'lots of friends' with 'many friends'.
'Lots of' is colloquial and must be avoided in literary English.

1 / -0

Identify the part having an error. If no part has an error, mark (5).

A
He

B
talks

C
like

D
his father does

Solution

'Like' is used if there is no verb after the noun phrase. But, in the given sentence we have 'does' after 'father'. So, 'like' should be replaced by 'as'.
