Question
In the following question, a sentence is divided into
five parts. The bold part is grammatically correct. Out of the other five parts, one part has an error. Mark the option containing the error. Quantum physics is / hard to grasp (A)/ than classical mechanics (B)/ due to its (C)/abstract nature (D)/ and complex mathematical formulations (E).Solution
The error is in part A of the sentence. The error in part A lies in the incorrect comparison structure. The comparative form "harder" should be used instead of "hard." When making a comparison between two things, the comparative form of the adjective is needed. The given sentence implies that quantum physics is more difficult to understand than classical mechanics, indicating a comparison. But, the phrase "hard to grasp" does not directly establish a comparison between the two subjects. Accordingly, the comparative form 'harder' should be used to convey the comparison appropriately. The correct sentence is: Quantum physics is harder to grasp than classical mechanics due to its abstract nature and complex mathematical formulations.
