Question
Read the sentence to find out whether there is any
grammatical or idiomatic error in it. The error, if any, will be in one part of the sentence. The letter of that part is the answer. If there is ‘No error’, the answer is (5). (Ignore errors of punctuation, if any). She had promised to meet me (A)/ after the meeting were over, (B)/but she didn’t turn up (C)/ because of her sudden illness (D)/ no error (E)Solution
The phrase "after the meeting were over" is incorrect because the correct form should be "after the meeting was over". We use "was" with singular nouns like "meeting" in past tense sentences. The corrected sentence would be: "She had promised to meet me after the meeting was over, but she didn’t turn up because of her sudden illness." Therefore, (B) is the correct answer.Â
