Correct Answer: with growing unease
Explanation:
The error is in third part. ?unease? is wrong expression because it is in noun form. Correct usage will be ?with growing ?uneasiness?, which is an adjective qualifying wait. Which means as time passed while I waited, I grew more and more uneasy.
Correct Answer: role
Correct Answer: The old lady was being laughed at by the kids.
Correct Answer: QSRP
Correct Answer: QSRP
Correct Answer: Being a rainy day
Explanation:
The error is in first part. If we start the sentence with being, it means that we were rainy which is incorrect. The sentence indicates that the day was Rainy, and the day will be denoted by ?It?. So ?It being a rainy day? will be the correct idiomatic expression. Otherwise the meaning of the sentence changes.
Correct Answer: he will never feel at home anywhere else in the world.
Explanation:
Error is in third part. By writing ?who? in the second part it has already been made clear that the sentence talks about ?a man?. The use of ?he? becomes redundant or repetitive. By omitting ?he? the sentence becomes grammatically correct.
Correct Answer: he was left
Explanation:
The error is in second part. In the given sentence two events occur one after the other. ?He left? before ?we reached?. So, the event that was completed before the occurrence of the next event shall be expressed in past perfect tense. Therefore, the correct form of verb will be ?had left?.
Correct Answer: it is worth done well.
Explanation:
Error is in third part. Since ?doing? was used in second part it should be followed by ?doing? in third part as well instead of using ?done?. Such repetitive figure of speech is used in
English grammar to create emphasis. This sentence indicates that a thing that is worth doing is also worthy of doing well. Here worth is the noun that must be followed by the verb doing.
Correct Answer: returned back home
Explanation:
Error is in second part. Returning means coming back to place from where you began. So, the use of back after returned becomes redundant. Without using back, the meaning remains the same. We can omit ?back? in part b, and use ?returned home.?
