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: confront
Correct Answer: Madhya Pradesh
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: Nagaland
