Question
In the following question, a sentence is divided into
five parts namely A, B, C, D and E in which two of the parts have some grammatical or contextual errors in them. You have to identify which pair among the given alternatives represents the parts that contain those errors. If none of the part has any error, then, mark option 5, i.e., ‘No error’ as your answer. The top Senate Democrat, Chuck Schumer,(A)/ made a fresh appeal at Thursday (B)/ for Republican senators to join with (C)/ Democrats in voting to allow witnesses and (D)/ new evidence to be presenting in the trial.(E)Solution
Sentence B- The phrase 'at Thursday' is incorrect. The correct preposition should be 'on Thursday', indicating a specific day of the week. Sentence E-According to rules, ‘to be’ is followed by the past participle form of the verbs and other adjectives, so, ‘new evidence to be presented’ is correct. The correct sentence is-"The top Senate Democrat, Chuck Schumer, made a fresh appeal on Thursday for Republican senators to join with Democrats in voting to allow witnesses and new evidence to be presented in the trial."
