  • Options
  • A. At the end of the year
  • B. every student who had done adequate work
  • C. was automatically promoted.
  • D. No error.

  • Correct Answer
  • No error. 

    Explanation

    The sentence reads: "At the end of the year, every student who had done adequate work was automatically promoted." Let's break it down to identify any grammatical error:

    1. Option A - At the end of the year:
      • This part of the sentence is grammatically correct. The prepositional phrase "At the end of the year" is properly structured and fits the sentence well.
    2. Option B - every student who had done adequate work:
      • This part is also correct. "Every student" is a singular subject, and the relative clause "who had done adequate work" is appropriately used to modify it.
    3. Option C - was automatically promoted:
      • This part is grammatically correct. The verb "was" correctly agrees with the singular subject "every student."
    4. Option D - No error:
      • There are no grammatical errors in any part of the sentence. The sentence is correctly structured and conveys the intended meaning clearly.
    5. Final Answer:
      • The sentence is free of errors, so the correct answer is D. No error.
