Question
I. Recently, there has been a lot of discussions on
universal basic income (UBI) in India. II. LGMDs are the most common adult-onset muscular dystrophies encountered in our country. III. In today’s era of mobile applications, huge quantities of data about individuals and their activities are capture by the app-owners. From the options given below, select the option which states the correct combination of incorrect sentences.Solution
Sentence I is incorrect as according to the Subject-verb agreement rule, the subject and the verb must agree in number, i.e., a singular subject must have a singular verb and a plural subject must have a plural verb, so, in this sentence, either ‘has been as lot of discussion’ or ‘there have been a lot of discussions’ should be used. Sentence III is also incorrect as it is telling about the individuals’ data and activities, hence, this sentence needs an adjective. Thus, ‘captured’ which is an adjective should be used instead of ‘capture’ which is a noun.
