Question
In each question below, a sentence is given with a word
printed in bold type, which may be correct or erroneous. Each sentence is followed by four words. Find out which is the correct word that should replace the error in bold, if there is any, and which makes the sentence grammatically meaningful and correct. If the sentence is correct as it is and ‘No improvement required’, mark option 5 ‘No improvement required’ as the answer. We live in a world far from ideal, where notions of beauty and success is riddled with colourism, casteism, classism, and segregation.Solution
The subject of the clause is "notions", which is plural. Therefore, the verb must also be plural.
“is riddled” is singular and does not agree with the plural subject.
“are riddled with” is correct because it agrees in number and tense with “notions.”
“riddled with” alone is incomplete without the auxiliary verb.
“is riddling with” and “is riddling within” are grammatically incorrect and awkward in meaning.
Hence, “are riddled with” is the grammatically and contextually correct option.
