    Sentence A, B, C, D, one of which is erroneous. Identify the erroneous part and mark that option as your answer.   He asked for (A)/ permission to go to the cinema (B)/ but his mother (C)/ did not give (D)

    B permission to go to the cinema (B) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C but his mother (C) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D did not give (D) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The sentence is incomplete at the end. The verb ‘give’ requires a noun to complete the sentence and make a complete sense to understand that what did ‘his’ mother not give. The possible object of the verb ‘give’ can be ‘it’ were ‘it’ refers to the permission that ‘he’ asked ‘his’ mother.
