Question
Read each sentence carefully to find out whether there
is any grammatical or idiomatic error in it. The error, if any, will be in one part of the sentence marked (a), (b), (c) or (d). Choose the option corresponding to that part. If the sentence is correct as it is, choose “No error (e)” as your answer. Ignore punctuation errors, if any. In view of the persistent delays in implementation (a), the committee recommended that the project (b) should be completed within six months (c) and that additional funds are allocated immediately (d). No error (e)Solution
This sentence tests the subjunctive mood, which is used after verbs expressing suggestion, recommendation, demand, or necessity (such as recommend, suggest, insist, order). After such verbs, the structure must be: that + subject + base form of the verb, without “should” or “are.” In this sentence, “recommended that” requires the verb to remain in its base form. Therefore, “funds are allocated” is grammatically incorrect. The correct construction should be “funds be allocated.” Since part (d) violates this rule, it contains the error.
