Question
In each of the questions, a sentence has been divided
into four parts, one of which may contain an error. Identify that fragment and mark it as your answer. The words in bold are contextually and grammatically correct. Mark (E) if the sentence contains no error. The unity and Integrity (A) / of a nation have (B) / to be based of (C) / a social contract (D)/ no error (E).Solution
In part (C), the correct preposition to use is "on" instead of "of." The phrase should be "based on" rather than "based of." The phrase "based on" indicates the foundation or source of something, whereas "based of" is an incorrect usage. So, the correct sentence reads, "The unity and integrity of a nation have to be based on a social contract."
