Correct Answer: Assists
Explanation:
?To aid? means to give financial or material help. So, option 2 is the best-fit answer. Amplify- increase
Correct Answer: See a player in the commentary
Explanation:
The error lies in the second part of the sentence. The form V + -ing is called a gerund if it serves as a noun. In the given sentence "to" has been used as a preposition (in a prepositional phrase) and not an infinitive, thus, the gerund form "seeing" is correct. E.G. I look forward to meeting my relatives. Thus, option 2 is correct. Here, 'used to' is used in the present tense to indicate that one has a habit of doing something.
Correct Answer: Whom I can consider knowledgeable
Explanation:
The error lies in the third part of the sentence. Use of 'than' suggests that the sentence makes a comparison between two people. In such a case comparative degree is used before the adjective. Therefore, more should be written before knowledgeable
Correct Answer: 2
Explanation:
The error lies in the second part of the sentence. Thoroughly should be replaced by thorough. Thoroughly has been derived the term thorough. Thoroughly is used as an adverb and means in a thorough or complete manner. Thorough is used as an adjective and means carefully without missing or omitting any detail. The word reading has been used as a noun and should be qualified by an adjective.
Correct Answer: The shortest boy of the school
Explanation:
The error lies in the first part of the sentence. After superlative adjectives, majorly two prepositions are used: of and in. We use in with a singular word referring to a place or group. Eg: I am the happiest woman in the world. We use of before plurals, before time periods such as year/month. Eg: Sunday is the best day of the week. Here, in this case, the subject is the 'school', thus, it should be 'in the school'.
Correct Answer: Authority through superior to subordinate
Explanation:
The error lies in the second part of the sentence. The correct usage for transfer is 'from........to........' and not 'through.....to......'. Hence, 'through' must be replaced with 'from'.
Correct Answer: Along with caution as it can
Explanation:
The error lies in the third part of the sentence. The word 'along' is unnecessary and must be omitted. Along denotes accompaniment. The context of the sentence doesn't talk about accompaniment.
