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. The World Meteorological Organisation (WMO)'s (A)/ latest report has / confirm the fears and apprehensions (B)/ about the world's worsening (C)/ climate profile and has presented (D)/ data to prove its findings. (E)Solution
The error lies in part B of the sentence. The base verb "confirm" should be in its past participle form 'confirmed' to match the present perfect tense construction in which we use have/has + the -ed form of the verb. It should be "has confirmed" to match the present perfect tense used in the sentence. The corrected sentence is: "The World Meteorological Organisation (WMO)'s latest report has confirmed the fears and apprehensions about the world's worsening climate profile and has presented data to prove its findings."
