Question
I'm referencing the time when (A)/ the province leader
visited the college (B)/ and saw, much to her disapproving, (C)/ that the classrooms were dingy (D)/ and overall maintenance was very shabby. (E) In the question below, a sentence is given, divided into five parts (A), (B), (C), (D) and (E). One of the parts is grammatically incorrect or has an error in it. You are required to identify the parts that are grammatically correct and choose the option accordingly.Solution
As the error lies in part C. Replace DISAPPROVING with DISAPPROVAL. We need a noun to describe the reaction of the province leader to what she saw at the college. The noun form of the verb DISAPPROVE is DISAPPROVAL, which is correct. DISAPPROVING is the adjective form and thus, incorrect.
