Question
I hope to make up (A)/athletics and would like to
(B)/compete in either the (C)/100 metre or 200 metre sprint (D). Read each sentence to find out whether there is any grammatical/contextual 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 ‘make up’ means ‘to forgive someone and be friendly with them again after an argument or disagreement’. This phrasal verb is inappropriate here. The correct phrasal verb is ‘take up’. It means ‘to begin to do something’. I hope to take up athletics and would like to compete in either the 100 metre or 200 metre sprint.
