Question
In the following questions, a part of the sentence has
been highlighted. Choose the most appropriate replacement from the given options. If no improvement is required, choose the option accordingly. The judge’s sentence were perfectly fair in the circumstances.Solution
The subject: → “sentence” is singular. Thus: → “were” is grammatically incorrect. Correct verb: → “was” Additionally, legal context prefers: → “just” rather than merely “fair.” “Perfectly just” conveys: judicial appropriateness, moral and legal correctness. Why others fail: (b) awkward adverb placement (c) “fare” is incorrect spelling (d) “perfect” weakens judicial precision (e) original sentence contains subject-verb error Hence, option (a).
