Question
In the question given below, two phrases in a sentence
are highlighted which may or may not be correctly used. From the given choices choose the correct one(s) and mark the answer accordingly. The children who had accompanied him on China, had travelled on an airplane for the very first time in their life. I. Accompanied him for, in their life II. Accompanied him to, in their lives III. Accompanied him for, in their livesSolution
Both boldened phrases have errors. In the first boldened phrase, the verb 'accompanied' is followed by the preposition 'on', which is incorrect. Usually while talking about a location, the verb 'accompany' is followed by the preposition 'to'. In the second boldened phrase, the pronoun used is plural so the following noun should be also plural (lives). Hence, (b) is the correct answer.
