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.

Sometimes, when you are used to/ see a player in the commentary/ box over a long period, you tend to/ forget what a great player he was

A) Sometimes, when you are used to	B) See a player in the commentary
C) Box over a long period, you tend to	D) Forget what a great player he was

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) See a player in the commentary

Explanation:

The error lies in the second part of the sentence. The form V + -ing is called a gerund if it serves as a noun. In the given sentence "to" has been used as a preposition (in a prepositional phrase) and not an infinitive, thus, the gerund form "seeing" is correct. E.G. I look forward to meeting my relatives. Thus, option 2 is correct. Here, 'used to' is used in the present tense to indicate that one has a habit of doing something.

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.
