      Question

      The following sentence has been split into four

      segments. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error. She suggested that we should (1)/ leave early to avoid traffic, (2)/ but nobody were ready to move (3)/ no error (4)
      A She suggested that we should Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B leave early to avoid traffic, Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C but nobody were ready to move Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D no error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      The error lies in the use of 'were' with 'nobody.' 'Nobody' is a singular subject and should be followed by the singular verb 'was' instead of 'were.' The correct sentence is: 'but nobody was ready to move.'
