Q:

Improve the given sentence if necessary.

There is many a slip between the cup and lip.

A) cup and lip B) cups and lips
C) the cup and the lip D) No improvement
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) the cup and the lip

Explanation:

The phrase ‘between the cup and lip’ needs to be replaced with ‘between the cup and the lip’. It means a situation where things did not happen at the last minute the way they were expected to due to unforeseen reasons. Thus, the correct formation would be, ‘There is many a slip between the cup and the lip’.

Q:

Read each sentence to find out whether there is any error in any part

Sita(a) with all her sisters(b) were here(c). No error.(d)

A) a B) b
C) c D) d
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) c

Explanation:

‘Were’ needs to be replaced with ‘was’ to make the sentence grammatically correct. This is because, ‘If the subjects are joined by as well as, with, along with, together with, and not, in addition to, but, besides, except, rather than, accompanied by, like, unlike, no less than, nothing but, led by, headed by, guided by, controlled by, governed by,etc.. Then the verb will agree with the first subject’ Thus, the correct sentence would be, ‘Sita with all her sisters was here’.
