Question
Given below is a sentence with an error. The error is in
one part of the sentence. Below the sentence are given the options containing the parts of the sentences. Choose the option which contains the error. The forest fire (A)/ spread quickly before (B)/ the firefighters had reached (C)/ the affected region. (D)/ No error (E)Solution
The past perfect tense ("had reached") is incorrectly used here because the event sequence suggests that the fire spread before the firefighters arrived. The simple past tense "reached" should be used instead of past perfect.
"The forest fire spread quickly before the firefighters reached the affected region."
