Question
In the following question, more than one part of the sentence may have errors. Find out which part(s) of the sentence has/have error(s) and select the appropriate option. The company has decided to make (
- A / an up-front investment and build a new factory in a distant land, (
- B / high in the mountains where residents (
- C / who choose to live (
- D / there have fewer economical opportunities. (
- E Â Â Â Â Â Â
Solution
Part (E) - The sentence talks about the availability of opportunities to earn money. The adjective 'economical' [giving good value or return in relation to the money, time, or effort expended/cheap] does not meaningfully qualify the noun 'opportunities' and thus fails to convey the intended meaning. It should be replaced by the adjective 'economic' [relating to economics or the economy/financial] to form a contextually coherent sentence.
