exam (B)/, the invigilators assumed (C)/ a more relaxed attitude than (D)/ they would in a full exam hall. (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 A. Replace HAND FULL with HANDFUL. In this sentence, we need a noun to denote the very low number of examinees. HAND FULL fits in neither grammatically, nor contextually - literally, this means to have too many things in one's hands, or idiomatically, this means to be very busy with something. HANDFUL means quantity that fills the hand, or very less quantity.
