Question
You are presented with a sentence which is divided into
five parts. The part in bold is grammatically correct. Out of the remaining four parts, three are grammatically incorrect and one is error free. You have to identify the part that is grammatically correct and mark the answer accordingly. If all the parts are grammatically correct then mark 'no error' as your answer. (A) Industries across the river (B) continues to pour dangerous waste into (C) the water, producing a toxic brew (D) that have killed all the fish (E) in the area downstream.Solution
Part A - We use 'across' to express 'throughout the width or expanse of something' or 'from one side to the other of', which is not suitable here to use, 'along' (throughout the length of) will be a correct fit here. Part B - since 'industries' is plural, we have to use 'continue'. Part C is grammatically correct. Part D - 'has' should be used instead of 'have' (since we are talking about the toxic brew, which is singular). Hence option c is the correct choice.
