Question
Read each sentence to find out whether there is any
grammatical error in it. The error, if any, will be in one part of the sentence. Mark the part with the error as your answer. If there is no error, mark ‘No error’ as your answer (Ignore the errors of punctuation, if any). The new intern was praised for (A)/ completing her assignments quickly, (B)/ working well in a team, and (C)/ she showed great initiative. (D)/ No error (E)Solution
The sentence lists three actions in a parallel structure:completing her assignments quickly
working well in a team
she showed great initiativeThe third item "she showed great initiative" breaks the parallelism because it uses a different grammatical structure (a full independent clause).
To maintain parallel structure, it should be: "showing great initiative", matching the gerund forms "completing" and "working".
Corrected sentence: The new intern was praised for completing her assignments quickly, working well in a team, and showing great initiative.
