    Question

    This question consists of a sentence which is divided into

    four parts numbered (1) to (4). Only one part of the sentence is not acceptable in standard written English. Identify the part which contains an error.
    A She is working Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B as a teacher Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C in this school Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D since five years. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The preposition "since" is used with a specific point in time (e.g., "since 2018"), while "for" is used to indicate a duration (e.g., "for five years"). The correct phrase should be "for five years" instead of "since five years."Corrected Sentence: "She is working as a teacher in this school for five years."
