nations (B) are plan to send at least seven (C) missions on the lunar South Pole.(D) In the following question , a sentence is divided into four parts A, B, C, and D 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 ha s any error, then, mark option E , i.e., ‘No error’ as your answer.Solution
In part C, "are plan to send" is incorrect. The correct form should be "are planning to send," as the verb "plan" needs to be in its present participle form to agree with "are."In part D, the phrase "seven missions on the lunar South Pole" is not the best choice because the preposition "on" is typically used when referring to being physically located on a surface (like standing on the surface of the Moon). However, when referring to space missions that are directed towards a specific location (like the lunar South Pole), the correct preposition to use is "to".
