Q:

Read each sentence to find out whether there is any error in any underlined part and indicate your response in the Answer Sheet against the corresponding letter i.e., (a) or (b) or (c). If you find no error, your response should be indicated as (d).

A) It is not difficult to believe that a man B) who has lived in this for a long time
C) he will never feel at home anywhere else in the world. D) No error
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) he will never feel at home anywhere else in the world.

Explanation:

Error is in third part. By writing ‘who’ in the second part it has already been made clear that the sentence talks about ‘a man’. The use of ‘he’ becomes redundant or repetitive. By omitting ‘he’ the sentence becomes grammatically correct.

In the following items, each passage consists of six sentences. The first and the sixth sentence are given in the beginning as S1 and S6. The middle four sentences in each have been removed and jumbled up. These are labeled P, Q, R and S. You are required to find out the proper sequence of the four sentences and mark your response accordingly on the Answer Sheet.

S1 :Helen graduated in 1904with special honours in English.
S6:Here dress was torn and roses were snatched from her hat.
P:She was twenty-four years old.
Q:She was invited to the St. Louis Exposition in 1904 to awaken worldwide interest in the education of the deaf-blind.
R:But on Helen Keller Day the crowds got out of hand.
S:Requests were already flowing in for appearances and for magazine articles.

The proper sequence should be 

A) Q P S R B) S P R Q
C) P S Q R D) S QR P
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) P S Q R

Explanation:

The starting statement talked about Helen and her graduation. So, the continuing statement would be talking about the age of Helen when she completed her honours. So, P would be the succeeding statement. So, P being the first statement eliminates all other options. Thus, the correct sequence is PSQR.
