that will run and run (B)/or fade away as fast as it (C)/gave up is for the moment hard to say (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 phrasal verb ‘give up’ means ‘to stop trying to guess’. This is incorrect here. The correct phrasal verb is ‘blow up’, which means ‘explode’. The fuel crisis is the immediate cause, and whether that will run and run or fade away as fast as it blew up is for the moment hard to say.
