Question
Find out the error according to the grammar and context of
the given sentences. If there is no error, mark option 5, i.e. No error. (Ignore the punctuation errors, if any.) British officials were concerned about (1)/ possible environment damage and (2)/ looking for answers a day after a cargo (3)/ ship carrying a toxic chemical hit a tanker .(4)/ No error (5)Solution
The adjective form "environmental" is needed to modify "damage". The word "environment" is a noun and doesn't fit grammatically in this context.The correct phrase is "environmental damage," meaning damage to the environment.Thus, the error is in (2) where "environment" should be changed to "environmental.""British officials were concerned about possible environmental damage and looking for answers a day after a cargo ship carrying a toxic chemical hit a tanker.
