Q:

Read the sentence to find out whether there is any error in it. The error, if any, will be in one part of the sentence. If the given sentence is correct as it is, the answer is ‘No error’. Ignore the errors of punctuation, if any.

The ruling party stood/ for implementation of the bill/ and was ready to/ stake their political existence.

A) The ruling party stood B) For implementation of the bill
C) And was ready to D) Stake their political existence
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Stake their political existence

Explanation:

The error lies in the 4th part of the sentence. The subject is 'the ruling party' which is singular; hence 'their' should be replaced by 'its' as their is a possessive pronoun for plural subjects and its is the possessive for singular subjects.

Q:

In the given question, a statement divided into different segments is given. The first segment is fixed, rearrange the other segments to form a coherent statement.

It was hard for the Afghans/ leading to the subtle plummeting of the morale (P)/ to withstand the wave after wave of enemy attacks (Q)/ their plight further worsened the situation (R)/ and the indifference of the allies towards (S)

A) QSRP B) PQRS
C) RQPS D) SRPQ
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) QSRP

Explanation:

Clearly, only segment Q fits after the first segment. This eliminates all the options except 1.

Option 2: It is incorrect because it ends in S which ends in 'towards' which can't be used to any statement.

Option 3: It is incorrect for the same reason as option 2.

Option 4: 'towards their plight further worsened' makes no sense; hence it can be eliminated.

Option 5: R is a clear misfit after the first segment; hence it can also be eliminated. Hence, the correct sequence is QSRP.
