Question
Despite the overwhelming evidence against (1)/ him, the
accused refused to admit (2)/ committed the crime, and the lawyer (3)/ continued to argue in his defense.(4)/ no error Read the sentence to find out whether there is any grammatical or idiomatic error in it. The error, if any, will be in one part of the sentence. The letter of that part is the answer. If there is ‘No error’, the answer is (5). (Ignore errors of punctuation, if any).Solution
The phrase "refused to admit committed the crime" is incorrect. After the verb "admit," we need to use the gerund form "committing" instead of the past tense "committed." The correct expression should be "refused to admit committing the crime." Corrected sentence: "Despite the overwhelming evidence against him, the accused refused to admit committing the crime, and the lawyer continued to argue in his defense."
