Question
It is recorded that (A)/the last cheetahs were shot at
India (B)/in 1947, but there is credible reports (C)/of sightings from the cat (D)/till about 1967 (E). Directions: In each of the questions, a sentence is divided into five parts namely A, B, C, D and E. In which one of the parts is given in bold and is grammatically and contextually correct. You have to identify which fragment, apart from the bold one, is correct in terms of grammar and usage. If all the parts are correct, then mark option 5, “All are correct” as the answer.Solution
B- the preposition ‘at’ is incorrect. It should be ‘in’. C- since we are talking about ‘reports’, ‘are’ should be the verb instead of ‘is’. D- the preposition ‘from’ is contextually incorrect. We should mention that the cat was spotted. So, the preposition ‘of’ should be used here. It is recorded that the last cheetahs were shot in India in 1947, but there are credible reports of sightings of the cat till about 1967.
