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).
The error is in first part. Replace ‘whom’ with ‘who’. ‘Whom’ is a pronoun which is the objective case of the pronoun ‘who’. But who is the subject in the given sentence, and hence usage of ‘whom’ is incorrect here.
Look at the underlined part of each sentence. Below each sentence are given three possible substitutions for the underlined part. If one of them (a), (b) or (c) is better than the underlined part, indicate your response on the Answer Sheet against the corresponding letter. If none of the substitutions imporves the sentence, indicate (d) as your response on the Answer Sheet.
