    Question

    Read the given sentence to find out whether there are

    any grammatical/ contextual errors in them. The errors, if any, will be in two of the parts of the sentences and the combination of those parts will be the answer to that question. 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) Just like saying hello is (A) / essential for start off (B) / in the right foot, knowing how to (C) / say goodbye is equally important. (E)
    A AB Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B BC Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C BD Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D AD Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Solution ​ The errors are in parts B and C. In B, replace the base form phrasal verb START OFF with the gerund STARTING OFF to form the object of the preposition FOR, and in C replace the preposition IN with ON to complete the idiom TO START OFF ON THE RIGHT FOOT, which means to make a successful start. Thus, B is the right answer.
