Question
Read the given sentence to find out whether there are
any grammatical/contextual errors in it. The errors, if any, will be in two of the phrases of the sentences and the combination of those parts will be the answer. If no part in the sentence has an error then, mark 'no error' as your answer. Consider part (e) in bold as grammatically correct. (Ignore punctuation errors if any) The general's strategy focused sole (A) / on conventional warfare, (B) / ignoring the raise of asymmetric (C) / threats that modern militaries (D) / must contend with. (e)Solution
Solution The errors lie in AC. A - replace the adjective SOLE with the adverb SOLELY as it is being used to modify the verb FOCUSED. C - replace the noun RAISE (the act of increasing) with RISE (advent; emergence) , as the latter is more meaningful in the context of the emergence of multi-faceted threats. Thus, B is the right answer.
