    Question

    In each of the questions, two sentences are given which are divided into four parts (A), (B), (C) and (D). Both the sentences may have errors in one of the four parts or may not have any error at all. You have to find out the parts containing error and mark that alternative as the answer.

    agreement with space launch firm, (B)/United Launch Alliance (ULA), to support (C)/the deployment of their Project Kuiper satellites (D).   II. Amazon noted that as 500 people (A)/are working on the Project Kuiper programme (B)/and the team is working on creating new technology (C)/to make broadband more affordable and accessible (D).
    A I-A, II-B Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B I- D, II-C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C I-C, II- D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D I-D, II-A Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    I- In A, it is said that ‘Amazon said it has secured’. So, the preposition for amazon is ‘it’. In D, ‘their’ is used instead of ‘its’. So, ‘the deployment of its Project Kuiper satellites’ is correct. II- In A, the preposition ‘as’ would make the sentence incomplete. Instead, ‘over’ or ‘about’ seem a good option. So, ‘Amazon noted that over 500 people’ is correct.
