Question
Antibiotics are useless (A)/and proprietary antiseptic
gargles and lozenges (B)/if used in access are (C)/likely to further aggravate the throat (D). Read each sentence to find out whether there is any grammatical error in it. The error, if any, will be in one part of the sentence. Mark the part with the error as your answer. If there is no error, mark ‘No error’ as your answer (Ignore the errors of punctuation, if any).Solution
The word ‘access’ is wrong here. The correct word to be used is ‘excess’, which means ‘an amount that is more than acceptable, expected, or reasonable’. Antibiotics are useless and proprietary antiseptic gargles and lozenges if used in excess are likely to further aggravate the throat.
