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 that part which contains an error.Solution
The error is in part (2). In sentences with "neither...nor," the verb should agree with the subject closest to it. Since "the book" is singular, the verb should be singular as well. Therefore, "were" should be changed to "was."
The corrected sentence is:
"Neither the movie nor the book was as interesting as I had expected."
